We're a service provider, and we have a network full of Cat6509's. 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.
