Xtreme x480 can do this and has upto 6 * 10G ports. It can actually hold a full bgp table also and is preatty cheap. // Andreas

Anybody have a recommendation on a switch that can do the following without costing a fortune? I have scoured Cisco, and bang for the buck is ... ASR9k (way over powered for handling zero-feature IX traffic), 3-8x 10gbps ports 64k routes minimum, preferably 128k Must be able to speak BGP Native/functional IPv6 would be sharp! Basic QoS to police our ports The prefix count seems to be the killer, as our exchange table is getting pretty big (42k+ currently). I'm really tempted to build a vyatta box or similar, but would rather do something off the shelf -- especially if it can be 1-2 gens old and cost effective. I'm certain that this same situation is scratching many other folks as exchanges become more important. Thanks for your input in advance -- stay warm! Randal
