[c-nsp] recommended Cisco router/firewall for 10 to 100Mbps, dual homed

[Patrick Giagnocavo]

Hi

Currently I am using an OpenBSD box which has given no problems, as a  
router/firewall for some colocated systems.

However, I would like to take advantage of some of the Cisco features  
like NBAR, and the FTP proxy code (systems needing FTP with the  
OpenBSD router lose most of their firewall protection because the FTP  
proxy is not very good, so we just open a large range of ports).

We are using 10Mbps currently but want to buy something that can  
handle 100Mbps as that is the next jump we will make.

Would a non-VXR 7204 do it?  1841?  We don't need VPN sessions, but  
being able to SSH into the Cisco would be preferred.

Cordially
