Hmmmm... I don't think the price of Cisco 7204 NPE-G1 would be that attractive. And of course, this would be a good option if you are not planning to run any QoS, if line rate performance is not an issue, and you are not promising any SLA's to your customers (provider) or end-users (enterprise).

Provides performance of up to 1 million packets per second (PPS) in Cisco Express Forwarding switching (an increase of up to 250 percent over the Cisco 7200 Series NPE-400) 1-Offers three Gigabit Ethernet/Fast Ethernet ports that do not take up bandwidth points 2-Doubles the amount of available DRAM (to 1 GB) 3-Eliminates the requirement for an input/output (I/O) controller 4Enables higher scalability on features such as NetFlow, Network Address Translation (NAT), access control lists (ACLs), and more 5-Cisco 7200 Series NPE-G1 including 256 MB default DRAM and 64 MB default flash memory 6-supporting 20050 HW/SW interfaces http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/routers/ps341/products_data_sheet09186a00800c6bd6.html Best Regards, Mounir Mohamed On 5/23/07, TCIS List Acct <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > > The M7i is a pretty good box, provided that you are happy to only have > > one RE and FEB.
