Oh, the M4R4G is a IronCore (older hardware model) management module and the BxGMR4 is a JetCore (newer/faster/more features, such as SFLOW) management module.

Both do take the same cards, except for the management modules. I recall that you can't run a BigIron M3 in the NetIron. The NetIron has a faster processor and more memory, which was intended to handle more BGP peers.

Hi folks Just a couple of silly questions. Does anyone know what the differences are between the BigIron 4000/8000 and NetIron 400/800 series? I seem to recall reading somewhere that they both take the same cards? And what is the difference between the M4R4G and the BxGMR4? Only that one has 4 GBIC ports and the other has 8 mini GBIC, or am I missing something else? Any help that anyone can provide will be greatly appreciated. Cheers!
