dave, you seem one of the more knowledgeable people on this list regarding the 7200 series...lemme ask you a question...
do you know how i can quantifiably justify going with one NPE/NSE over another? like specific performance requirements for each? thanks, ed -----Original Message----- From: MADMAN [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, December 23, 2002 10:45 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: 7200 Router Questions... [7:59645] No. With the NPE-1G being the exception you need an I/O card which is on the same side of the router as the PA's, and a NPE or NSE card which is on the otherside. The I/O cards contains you NVRAM, flash, console connection and various LAN interfaces. The NPE or NSE contains the CPU and DRAM.
