Thank you for this. Maybe the CX is too new - or it wont be getting the 3560-X templates.
I have a 3650 under my desk at present - I'll do some testing. I really like the 4451's - they much more like an ASR than an ISR - they do "most" things in hardware. We have had to buy a lot of licences though - but this just the way that cisco is going. -----Original Message----- From: Reuben Farrelly [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: 03 June 2015 11:20 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [c-nsp] ASR920 - ISR4431 On 3/06/2015 7:59 PM, Nick Cutting wrote: > Thank you for the suggestion - I've been using these in the lab quite > a bit lately as I've lost faith in GNS3 (watching it fall apart when > showing clients proof of concept - "this won't happen on the real > kit..") , however I am a little scared to run the internet vlan(s) > into the esx estate at this time, there is a rather old fashioned > security policy in place.

Here's from a WS-C3560CX-12PD-S: switch-2#show sdm prefer The current template is "default" template. The selected template optimizes the resources in the switch to support this level of features for 8 routed interfaces and 1024 VLANs. number of unicast mac addresses: 16K number of IPv4 IGMP groups + multicast routes: 1K number of IPv4 unicast routes: 5K number of directly-connected IPv4 hosts: 4K number of indirect IPv4 routes: 1K number of IPv6 multicast groups: 1K number of IPv6 unicast routes: 5K number of directly-connected IPv6 addresses: 4K number of indirect IPv6 unicast routes: 1K number of IPv4 policy based routing aces: 0.25K number of IPv4/MAC qos aces: 0.375k number of IPv4/MAC security aces: 0.375k number of IPv6 policy based routing aces: 0.25K number of IPv6 qos aces: 0.25K number of IPv6 security aces: 0.375k switch-2# There's only one SDM template at this stage. A 3650 switch (not a 3560) would be sufficient though - think this is as low as you could go while fitting that many prefixes in tcam. Aside from this I'm quite disappointed with how the ISR 4300/G3 platform has been put together in so far as the licensing and throughput restrictions. It seems to me that it's a big step backwards from the ISR G2 platform, and the upgrade from G2 to G3 is a hard sell. I would be most interested to see how the sales figures are looking...and other peoples thoughts on this.
