In terms of FOSS routing platforms, I think Vyatta has a better user interface

IMHO if the CLI is awkward then there a higher risk of misconfiguration.

I don't know much about Mikrotik, but there are OC-3 interfaces
If your routing platform doesn't have POS OC-3, you can use a
converter to map Ethernet services to it and keep using the platform
you've been using. You lose a little on efficiency and failure
detection, but turning BFD on might help:

I've worked
You can always use a Gig-E - OC3c/STM1 media converter. I've used one
from RAD just to provide OC3c access speeds for some over Cisco 75xx
routers which don't support POS interfaces. Works great.

To make it clear where I'm coming from, I see the networking world from

Ok, scenario time.
I've found a 7206VXR\NPE-G1 w/ 256MB RAM.
It has the 3 onboard GigE ports and a PA-POS-1OC3 card in it that
should be fine for our OC-3 connection.
We need a total of 5 Ethernet ports, not necessarily all GigE. I found
this card, PA-2FE-TX that would give us 2 10/100 ports.
Do you plan on getting full BGP routes from your upstream? If so, go
with 1Gb of ram on the NPE G1.
I believe that IOS 12.4.25c is the latest version for the 7200VXR

The 15.0 series is available for the 7200VXR. However, unless I'm missing
something, note that the Service Provider version doesn't have OSPFv3 for
IPv6.
