Are you referring to ascend's old netstar version called 'gigarouter' or the general terminology for a gigabit router? If you are talking about ascend's gigarouter, they are now known as 'GRFs' and have several different models capable of a wide range of performance. The ascend version ATM OC-12 Cards will support 512 VPI/VCI's mapped over each port, and we've recently seen routers that have ~60 sessions mapped across them.

I know that these boxes work well, theoretically, but I really want to know if any major ISP is using gigarouters on their core. Another issue is, if I have 30 ATM PVC´s over an OC-12 interface, how well this box will treat , it will provide QoS for all the PVC´s without impact the other services? Rogerio
