That's an interesting idea.  What sort of Linux-capable hardware can support 
1-2 OC48s and 1-2 OC12s along with various GigE connections?

The GSRs were having enough line card failures and it was actually cheaper to 
buy a whole new platform than to SmartNet the LCs or buy new/used cards and I 
now have a common platform (6500/7600) and need to stock less different types 
of spares than I did before.

But I also never did any research on a Linux platform that could pass gobs of 
traffic.
