[c-nsp] Advice on Terminating T1s

[Dean Smith]

"At what point would you stop using multiple 7200s and go to a bigger box?"

We run 7200s with either  6x8 Port E1 Card or the Channelised STM1(OC3) PA
-which gives 63xE1 (PA-STM-1)

We run hierarchical 6-layer QoS and a G1 could happily run 2 of those (we
only run one but are in a very cautious environment). So A rack with 8
7200-g1 + 2 Channelised STM1 per chassis could give you 1000 E1 without the
hassle of a 10k.

(Assuming of course a channelised STM1 equivalent is available to you)

I've got a 7206 with an NPE-150 with a PA-MC-T3 and a 1 Port 100Mb FE card.
The most traffic I see out of this router is about 8 to 12mb during peek
times.   Would adding a second PA-MC-T3 to this router be too much for it?
Going forward sales is adding about 15 to 20 T1s a month to the network.
Any suggestions on what to start looking at?  At what point would you stop
using multiple 7200s and go to a bigger box?
