hi,

could anybody recommend core router and modules required for below specs

core router
 -  Wire speed throughput 
-  Chassis based technology (HW Redundancy – 2 pcs.) 
-  Passive Backplane 
-  Scalable bandwidth  
-  Redundant power supplies (n + 1) 
-  Hot swappable hardware elements 
-  Redundant control plane/ CPUs/ switching fabrics 
-  Sub-Second Fail over of Chassis Hardware 
-  Every Core Router has to have at minimum two Gigabit Uplinks to 
each IDF (total no idf or switches 14) 
-  These two Uplinks have to run as a trunk based on LACP IEEE 
802.3ad or similar proprietary protocols. (Aggregation of several 
physical uplinks) Please describe if it is a variant technology. 
-  The link aggregation path routing (path routing decision) between 
the two pairs have to be on Layer 2 and Layer 3 base. 
-  Fail Over and load balancing between the 2 pairs of aggregated 
Uplinks to a IDF 
-  Each 1 Gbps Uplink have to support multi mode fibre 
-  Hardware-based support for IP multicast  
-  Dynamic Routing Protocols (RIP, OSPF, e.g. in compliance with 
network concept) 
-  Router Redundancy Technologies 
-  Multicast Routing compliance – IGMP, DVMRP, PIM 
-  Standard Access Lists -
 ACL 
-  DHCP Relay RFC 2131 
-  IEEE 802.1Q  VLAN compliance 
-  Comprehensive Management 
-  Syslog 
-  SNMP V1,V2,V3 
-  Multi-configuration file support 
-  Quality of Service –  minimal requirements 
•  IEEE 802.1p Prioritization 
•  IETF DiffServ / DSCP  
•  Policy based QoS by IP, Subnet,  Protocol, Ethertype, VLAN 
ID and Flow based traffic shaping
