Hi,

I'd recommend 3750 instead.
The difference in price is about $1000 list price.

So what woud you recommend instead 3550-EMI?
Does anyone know what Cogent uses for their customer-facing L3 switch?
Whatever they use does BGP, but not a full table since that comes from a
multihop feed to one of their GSRs.
