Hi All,

Looking for some recommendations for BGP edge routers.

Have used Juniper devices for years, but interested to hear what else may
be out there.  Requirement is just to shift packets and multihome to a few
upstream transit providers with full routing tables and several peering
partners with more limited route table sizes.  Traffic volumes in the gigs
to low 10's of gigs.

I seem to be getting into a situation where the high end boxes to cope with
routing table sizes are overkill in terms of features and performance (and
price).   But match performance and there's not enough memory to run the
BGP.

Prefer a supported vendor device rather than roll your own open source
solution.


Thanks

Phil
