[AusNOG] routerOS ... used to be RE: Cross Connect Pricing & Peering POP's

[Rhys Cuff (Latrobe I.T)]

I have used it for years.
Also, used it on vmware and it was rock solid.

It's as stable as any cut down Linux machine would be.

Hi

Wondering what peoples experience with router OS is. thinking about
running in a VM and using BGP and OSPF.  First glance it looks like
somebody has taken linux and added some apps and wrapped it into a
distro of sorts

Also i saw mention a while back of somebody building a sw BGP setup.
Wondering what solution they used. Quagga seems to have come up a few
times in my searches

I run 10gb links out of a Dell 1950 with router OS (Can't be version 6)
on it as long as you use an Intel 10gb card it is fine.
Production is running DAC HP Procurve sfp+ cables - I'm unsure what
fibre modules would work for you however I did find one that worked but
can't remember which one.
I can remember that HP Procurve, H3C and a Dell Branded Finstar did not
work.

+1 for Mikrotik kit, interesting to see Emergency services here are
using it as a backup MPLS over radio network... pretty fun stuff.

Daniel.

Also I am have to be corrected here but I am fairly sure the
RB2011UAS-RM only has a single SFP cage, not even SFP+ and does not
support that Optic or any other optic over 1G.

I believe you would need a Cloud Core router to support 10G and even so
it's fairly experimental.

The CCR's are sexy little boxes, they'll do the throughput you need once
you man handle the configuration into them!
