What options are available for a small, low cost router that has at least four 10G ports, and can handle full BGP routes? All that I know of are the Juniper MX80, and the Brocade CER line. What does Cisco and others have that compete with these two? Any other vendors besides Juniper, Brocade, and C

Low Cost CWDM or DWDM

What vendors do you recommend for low cost CWDM / DWDM gear? Assume you have a fiber ring of 50 miles of fiber, and want to have POPs evenly spaced around the ring that you want to jump on and off of. Assume you only have 2 fiber strands to work with, but can obtain two more at an additional cost.

Well, we would have a BGP router in another town. Then get a wave from a transport provider from the other town to the town that equinix or the peering exchange was located at. The cross connect would go from the transport providers Z location to the port on the exchange. I have confirmed that Equi

I know typically peering exchanges are made for peering traffic between providers, but can you buy IP transit from a provider on an exchange? An example, buy a 10G port on an exchange, peer 5Gbps of traffic with multiple providers on the exchange, and buy 5Gbps of IP transit from others on the exch
