Thank you all for the input on router selection.
Even though the power supplies are on the rear of the 7200 it seems it is on
the allowed equipment listing for the carrier we are going to be co-locating
with.
It turns out that the OC-12 requirement was changed to OC-3. This is making
us lean towards 7200's (we have 7200 spares already from left over dial
shelves). Can anyone tell me what is the performance (Mb/s, PPS) I would
expect to get out of a NPE-G1 and also can it handle full internet routing
table (with max memory)? Also what is the most stable/trusted ver of IOS
for 7200 with NPE-G1 (BGP internet router... no MPLS).
Thanks again for all your input!
