Any thoughts on the peering question?

Thanks Alex......

As far as why........   well let's see; when the router gets hosed in
our cage, and we open a ticket with MFS, and it takes 5 hours before
they arrive..... it seems a lot more logical to be able to power cycle
it out of band without waiting. Now if MFS's facility was truly a 24 x 7
facility, which you would expect for a place that was that important :-)
By the way, your $500 is much less than the last bill they sent us ...
$750.

Amazing... and we didn't even see the gun in their hands.

Leviton has some stuff the we use, they have some things that can do 20
amps.

The better question; why? What is the 7513 doing that you need it to be
rebooted? I can be paid to go do it for you; lets say, $500 ea time? :-)

Is anyone using any kind of out of band controlled power system that
will support remote power cycling of multiple devices with high power
ratings? I'd like to be able to cycle individual components in our racks
at NAPs (especially MAE E!) including 7513s.  All the devices we've
found are limited to 15 amps total. I think a 7513 requires 20amps on
its own.
