Re: Switch with 10 Gig and GRE support in hardware.
is the requirment still 1-2 U switch? ----- Reply message ----- From: sthaug@nethelp.no Date: Tue, Mar 1, 2011 4:44 am Subject: Switch with 10 Gig and GRE support in hardware. To: <leigh.porter@ukbroadband.com> Cc: <nanog@nanog.org>
Juniper MX80 does all this.
1. It's not a switch (so don't expect "switch pricing"). 2. It doesn't offer 12 x 10GE ports. And I believe this has been mentioned earlier in the same thread... Steinar Haug, Nethelp consulting, sthaug@nethelp.no
OK. Please show me a “switch” that will terminate Layer 3 GRE tunnels.. If it does GRE then it is making Layer 3 forwarding decisions which is a router function. It may be built into a switch as well, but it is still a router. -- Leigh Porter From: tsison@gmail.com [mailto:tsison@gmail.com] Sent: 01 March 2011 15:10 To: sthaug@nethelp.no; Leigh Porter Cc: nanog@nanog.org Subject: Re: Switch with 10 Gig and GRE support in hardware. is the requirment still 1-2 U switch? ----- Reply message ----- From: sthaug@nethelp.no Date: Tue, Mar 1, 2011 4:44 am Subject: Switch with 10 Gig and GRE support in hardware.

HP A5820 (3com/H3C in the past ) is doing 24*10GE + GRE (we test it ) btw in the latest release it is also doing mpls (not test it yet ) Nitzan On Tue, Mar 1, 2011 at 17:28, Leigh Porter <leigh.porter@ukbroadband.com>wrote:
