Hello, We currently run a small ISP network with two Linux based routers called ISis (www.imagestream.com) to aggregate all the customers into the backbone. There are two ISis routers and each ISis has two frame-relay T3's. All customers have a frame-relay T1 and we setup the PVC DLCI mappings over the frame cloud.. Now, the ISis routers are too much of a low quality and unacceptable for our ever-growing network. (Please don't reply back to me telling me how Linux for ISP routing is incorrect to begin with, etc, etc.. I understand and agree.. I never made the call the go with Linux based routers in the beginning..) Anyway.. with that being said. We are in process of removing these ISis routers and replacing them with Cisco routers. We are currently thinking of using Cisco 7206VXR's with at least an NPE300 per replacement of ISis. So that would be two Cisco 7206 routers, each with two frame-relay T3's. Each Cisco 7206 router will have about approximately 150 or so serial sub-interfaces for customer PVC mapping.. And each 7206 will have a 100Meg FastEthernet connection to the backbone core router (since two T3's saturating only goes up to about 90Mbps). Now the question is.. Can a Cisco 7200 handle the two frame-relay T3's with 150 or so subinterfaces? My impression of a 7200 is that it is more designed for deployment at the border, not much at the edge/aggregation.. What do you people think? If it cannot handle such pressure, what other models do you guys suggest for us? We are looking at both Cisco and Juniper products, but we would like to use Cisco whenever we can, so Cisco is our preference. Thanks in advance. --haesu ---------------------------------------------------------------- This mail sent through TowardEX Webmail http://mail.towardex.com ----- End forwarded message ----- ---------------------------------------------------------------- This mail sent through TowardEX Webmail http://mail.towardex.com
