Boxes like Foundry, Extreme, Redback and many others all talk BGP (at least to a first approximation) but is their lack of use in the core/edge/CPE a lack of scale, stability, performance or just interest?
With Extreme, it's certainly (in my experience only) a matter of horrific stability in their routing engine: great switches, truly scary as routers. The thought of BGP on Extreme is almost comedic, considering I'm afraid of their RIP... Yours, J.A. Terranson
