First, thanks for all of your comments. All were very helpful.
Next, obviously I wasn't very clear in my previous message. I did not
mention that both router redundancy and FR redundancy are important to the
company I currently work for. And, we currently have one router already in
place as our primary FR router. The 3640 I propose in my earlier message is
an extra in the event the other 'box' dies. While it is more likely that an
outage would result from the provider I would like to cover all bases
possible on the 'inside of the smartjack'.
Again, thanks for all of your suggestions. I particularly like the idea of
a backup PVC. I may explore that option further.
May God bless,
Raul
