Re: [c-nsp] cisco 7206 VXR router
It's not only C routers. The J-series have 4x Gig interfaces, and that box definitely can't route 4 Gig of traffic. Though the issue is definitely more prevalent on the C side. The biggest commonality is that they are software routers. Although even on hardware routers, you'll run into things like backplane oversubscription...

Re: [c-nsp] cisco 7206 VXR router
Hi Jack, you can't add eight 100Mbit-Interfaces additionally. The NPE-G1 has 3 build-in Gbit-Ports, the 7206VXR chassis is able to handle 6 additional Cards. One 100MBit FE-Card (PA-FE-TX/FX) allocates 200 Bandwith Points, a 2-Port FE-Card (PA-2FE-TX/FX) allocates 400 BW-Points. So, you probably have to buy four PA-2FE-TX/FX-Cards (if you cannot use the build-in Gbit-Ports for your purposes *or* if you can use them buy 5 PA-FE-TX/FX-Cards :-) Bye, Werner jack daniels schrieb: Hi , I'm a bit confused on - Also, don't assume that because you can add 8 100Mbit interfaces, that you can use them at full speed..
