Hi, I received 17 responses since I sent my message yesterday. Thanks to those who responded quickly and provide the information. Below is a summary of the responses. It shows the kind of software version people are using on the hardware platform they have and the network protocols they are supporting. Hope this gives those who are planning on or in the process of deploying BGP4 some idea of what software version to use. --Jessica Vendor Platform Software Version Prots in addition to IP ====== ======== ================ ======================= 1.Cisco AGS+ 10.0(0.11) 2.Cisco AGS+,3000 10.0 CLNP,DECNet 3.3Com NETBuilder II SW/NBII-HS, 6.2.2 4.Cisco AGS+ 10.0(4879) 5.Cisco 4000 10.0(0.14) 6.Cisco AGS+ 9.21+BGP4(2.2) 7.Cisco AGS+ 10.0(0.5) 8.Cisco 4000 9.21(5192) 9.Cisco AGS+ 9.21+bgp4(2.5) 10.Cisco AGS+ 9.21(5362) 11.Telebit RC5000 SWIP version 4.2 Communications 12.Cisco CGS,AGS,AGS+,4000,7000 10.0(0.14) CLNP 13.Cisco 4000 9.21+BGP4(2.1) Cisco AGS+ 10.0(4879) 14.Cisco AGS+,7000 9.21+BGP4(2.2) 15.DEC DS5000/200 Ultrix 4.2, & Cornell gated R3.5A3 16.Cisco AGS+,3000,7000 9.21+BGP4(2.2) 17.Cisco AGS+,7000 10(0.14) Other information: one has to have at least 16MB momery in order to load BGP4 software on cisco routers.

Hi,
For those who already run BGP4, would you please provide the following information :
Vendor routers (e.g. Cisco, Proteon ...etc) Hardward platform (e.g. Cisco 7000, 4000 .. etc) Software version other info which you think is valuable for new users
We have been asked about these kinds of questions from people who are working on deploying BGP4. Please help.
Please send your information to me. I will summerize it and post it to the list. Thanks!

Just as a side note, 10.0 has left beta, and we are suggesting that everyone who is migrating to BGP4 run 10.0, instead of 9.21+BGP4, since 10.0 receives better support (9.21+BGP4 is on the way out).
