[AusNOG] Bgp capable router for aws direct connect

[Damien Gardner Jnr]

Yeah, I have a CCR1009 currently taking two full feeds (Waiting on the
third) and I'm really quite happy with it.    However they're $560 (with
SAGE-AU discount), so I figured not in the range of 'keeping costs down'.
Guess it depends on your relativity though ;)

Note the suggestion to turn off packet inspection and try to keep traffic
on the fast path.  I can't push more than 650mbits/sec of TCP between any
two interfaces on my CCR, however common consensus has been that that is
because I'm doing VRF's, and quite a bit of policy routing on mine.  Note
that this is a limitation specifically with single TCP streams. UDP can
saturate the interfaces in both directions without a problem :)

We danced among the lightning bolts,
