Ok, yes you are correct you can't drop a DS3 into the back of a PC, but why not use a 4500 or 7000 for your ds3's and then use a PC to do the major BGP4? On a 4500 I only can put in 32 megs or ram. Yes gated will use more ram for the same number of routes, but I can put 128 meg or more in a PC.
I think we need to talk about using PC route servers and cisco together for a solution, the cisco's just can't hold the ram needed.
That's why there's the 4500M, and the 7000, and ...
and ... ? And what? That is the problem, I go out get a 7000 and then need more ram in a few month I need to get a new router that is vary expensive. Nathan Stratton CEO, NetRail, Inc.
