+1 for Brocade MLXe. Used on our edge and *knock on wood* have not had any issues with it ever. Full BGP routing table, multiple VRFs, QoS / bandwidth management. We also have a few Brocade CER series routers, which are awesome as well for metro edge. And for political reasons a bunch of Cisco Nexus/Cat4500 gear in the core... -P -----Original Message----- From: Elliot Finley [mailto:efinley.lists () gmail com] Sent: Monday, December 09, 2013 2:29 PM Cc: nanog list Subject: Re: What routers do folks use these days? +1 for Brocade MLXe.

We are finding that we are outgrowing them from the standpoint of their ability to handle lots of large routing tables. Obviously their switching capability is still superb but one of them with 20 peers is starting to groan a bit and RAM is going to be an issue soon. What do people use these days? Our backbone needs in the next 2-3 years are going to be sub-100Gbps.Check the Brocade MLXe series. We (Init7 / AS13030) are using them and the previous XMR series for years and are happy with it. CLI is Cisco-look-and-feel, the software tree has a clear structure (unlike Cisco with hundreds of versions) and the TAC is willing to ssh into your gear to assist. -- Fredy Kuenzler Init7 (Switzerland) Ltd.
