Re: 10G MetroE 1-2U Switch

Sorry, slight correction to the below - GMPLS Sub-TLVs inside the TE LSAs were being advertised with nil values instead of being removed completely. One additional thing that really irked me is that their TE code is that they set all TE metrics to 0 for every interface/link and no way to use the

Re: 10G MetroE 1-2U Switch

Aaron, The code is very green; the platform originally was inherited from Nortel and as such they invested heavily in PBB-TE first and foremost. To give you an idea they're currently at version 6.16 and the MPLS code was introduced in 6.10 (from memory). They support just enough OSPFv2 or

RE: 10G MetroE 1-2U Switch

Thanks Tom... I might be wrong, I thought I remembered Ciena not having the MPLS routing capabilities I needed... I do see this on their website... so maybe it does more MPLS L2/L3VPN capabilities than I remembered... I might have to take another look at this and talk to my Ciena POC and VAR...

Re: 10G MetroE 1-2U Switch

I'd avoid the 7280R for this. Works great as a P router for cheap, fast label switching, but their VRF implementation is lacking with both route-leaking and MP-BGP address family (other than standard ipv4+ipv6) support being nonexistent. On Thu, Apr 13, 2017 at 3:12 PM, David Hubbard <

Yeah, I settled on the ACX5048 too. I've since replaced about (25) Cisco ME3600's with ACX5048's. I'm doing MPLS L2VPN's and L3VPN's on the ACX5048. It's pretty nice and stable. -Aaron

Hi Eric, A year or 2 ago, I did a good bit of work looking at various MPLS-capable-PE boxes as I was looking to replace the investment of Cisco ME3600's that couldn't keep up the pace of our FTTH 10 gig link expansions... that ME3600 only had (2) 10 gig ports. Several links below are just a quick

Would Arista 7280R work? Gets you 48+ 10gig and a couple QSFP ports even in the cheapest model. I believe it has the features you want. Haven’t done MPLS with it, but I’ve got some running OSPF/OSPFv3 with no issues. On 4/13/17, 5:37 PM, "NANOG on behalf of Erik Sundberg"

I looked at all three of these solutions, and ended up going with the Juniper ACX5048. Similar hardware wise to the NCS as it has the Broadcom chipset, but much more feature rich than Cisco. On Thu, Apr 13, 2017 at 4:37 PM, Erik Sundberg wrote: > Hey Nanog, > > Looking
