pretty amazing, not certain quagga can or should handle full bgp table but
you could probably get a Penguin 10gbe for less than 8k.

quagga (or whatever RIB manager you want, e.g. bird) isn't the issue.  The
issue is that these switches have limited hardware FIB capacity and if you
attempt to put a full table on them, they won't accept it.
