Thanks for this.

I'd be looking for some more information about what packet rates would 
be supported by each of them.
Let's say I got 2xGi to our core and 3xFa upstream/peering.
Now if I got e.g. a DDOS attack over the 3 lines and therefore 
quite high packet rates.

Which of these three options would be able to forward traffic at 
normal rate with ACL's (make it 200 ACE on layer 4) applied to drop 
this traffic, how about uRPF(which is obviously not what we always 
want to do)?
Any pointer to some information about this?

Thanks
Sven
