What RSP do you have? If it’s the older one, you will want to upgrade to use the card at full rate.
If you are only expecting under 50% utilization you will likely be fine, but upgrading to RSP880 is recommended. Otherwise you may want to talk about a trade-in for the 55xx devices. If you’re buying it refurb/used and don’t expect to do run both ports > 40-50% you’ll be fine. There are a number of other minor technical limits, eg: small numbers of 10G flows may congest the fabric based on hashing. This means you may want to look at some chassis, fan, power or other upgrades. - Jared > On Jan 5, 2017, at 5:38 PM, Aaron <[email protected]> wrote: > > Thanks Adam, you lost me with that.
