The 6148's are so bad - I think they share 1g of bandwidth per 8 ports. I saw a client dropping TB's a day with these linecards.

Most likely, yes. Though the 6148s are 'classic bus' cards, which do not use the chassis fabric. They're hideous and slow down the whole router, due to taking up bandwidth on the classic bus that is also used for lookup signalling between CFCs and the supervisor (no use of classic bus cards, and the use of DFCs, is required to overcome those limitations). If you're intending to add more, please add 6548s as a minimum. Better yet, please put all of your 7600 gear into the sea and use more power-efficient devices. :) Regards, -- Tom _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list cisco-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/ _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list cisco-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
