Re: What routers do folks use these days?

If you're staying Cisco, probably the ASR1000 series, or the ASR9K, depending on needs. You probably don't need CSR routers if you're not going to 100Gbps. On Fri, Nov 29, 2013 at 6:37 PM, Jawaid Desktop <jb@forethought.net> wrote:

We're a service provider, and we have a network full of Cat6509's. We are finding that we are outgrowing them from the standpoint of their ability to handle lots of large routing tables. Obviously their switching capability is still superb but one of them with 20 peers is starting to groan a bit and RAM is going to be an issue soon.

What do people use these days? Our backbone needs in the next 2-3 years are going to be sub-100Gbps.
