Sorry, and I realise it will probably be an unpopular thing to say... but I do NOT rate anything from Mikrotik in the enterprise grade.<div><br></div><div>Sure the features aren't bad, and they are good for certain things... like non-critical deployments, but I see them in the same class as Netgear, Dlink or Linksys...

<div>Are you talking for core/edge routing
or for DSL Aggregation?<br>
<br>
Seems a popular solution of the moment is to move to MikroTik
routers for core routing, specifically the RB1100AHx2, or perhaps
their 'Cloud' router that is newer. Since they are so cheap, it is
not hard to purchase multiple and have them in a load
balanced/fail over situation.<br>
<br>
In terms of DSL Aggregation, I believe the upgrade path in the
Cisco world from a 7200/7300 would be to the ASR 1000 routers. I
could well be wrong though.<br>
