The RAM is upgradeable but it can support quite a few full tables out of the box. The routing software under the hood got upgraded by Ubiquiti to ZebOS https://www.ipinfusion.com/products/zebos/ from the VyOS code. There is a Cavium bug regarding UDP packets though that can be nasty if you hit it. https://community.ubnt.com/t5/EdgeMAX/UDP-packet-loss-with-EdgeRouter-Lite/m... Even though the thread starts by talking about the Lite, all of the Cavium EdgeRouters currently have the problem. The beta work around is to restrict packet forwarding to only use one of the CPU cores. This is with or without hardware offloading enabled. Hopefully Cavium will have a real fix soon. I have two of these I'm itching to put into production once the bugs are worked out. On Mon, Jul 3, 2017 at 8:28 PM, Josh Reynolds <josh@kyneticwifi.com> wrote:
I kinda feel the same way. I wish FRR was a big more mature at this point though.
Why not use a Linux or BSD computer for this? It is cheap and you know exactly what you are getting. It will forward 10 gig at line rate at least for normal traffic.

Dear NANOG,
Some friends of mine are operating a nonprofit (on shoe string) and looking to connect some CDN caches to an IX fabric. A BGP speaking device is needed between the caches and the BGP peers connected to the fabric. The BGP speaker is needed to present the peers on the IX with a unified view of

I was wondering whether anyone was experience with the "EdgeRouter Infinity XG" device, specifically in the role of a simple peering router for a couple of tens of thousands of routes. (I'd point default to the left and take just the on-net routes on the right to reduce the table size requirement).
I hope the device can do at least 2xLACP trunks, has a sizable FIB, is automatable (supports idempotency), can forward IMIX at line-rate, *flow, and exposes some telemetry via SNMP.
Any note sharing would be appreciated!
Kind regards,
Job
