[AusNOG] powerful routers in core/edge routing/switching

[Adam Mulcahy (amulcahy)]

Ankit,
I would suggest the asr-9000 from a cisco point of view.

It currently supports 440G throughput per slot and 4M routes.

,Adam.

Yes, they will hold it but you would never want your upstream to go down and routes to converge :)

VS-S720-10G-3CXL and WS-SUP720-3BXL will do 1m IPv4 routes.  I think you'll find 500k is the limit for IPv6 routing table.

No Cisco 6500 is not good option If you want to run BGP with transit ISP. Maximum IPv4 routes by a VS-S720-10G-3CXL* supervisor is 500K. internet routing table already ~ 435k

If you are looking for density of sub-10GbE ports and just BGP / OSPF then Cat6K is still a fair option if you want switching and routing.  If you want 10GbE ports then Nexus should also be on your review list too.

Hi Guys,

I am interesting in hearing what others think and/or have experienced about the following:

Cisco ASR
Juniper MX
Brocade MLX

I am after some powerful routers (with possible switching) that can hold multiple IPv4/IPv6 tables and forward say ~200 Gbps of throughput preferably all in hardware. This will be pure BGP/OSPF calculations for next hops, route convergence and forwarding. I know MLX ports can act as switching ports so that will mean I don't need a separate switching layer which is a bonus.

Guess, instead of having a L3 switch that can do routing, I want a router that can do switching.

Looking forward to hear from you noggers.

Best Regards,

Ankit Agrawal.
