[j-nsp] System board memory expansion on M7i

[Dan Farrell]

You're not incorrect that they can be ordered with that much RAM,
however... any sales rep that didn't put you onto the new RE-850-1536-BB
(the 850Mhz CPU with 1536 MB RAM) for the same price as the old 400 mhz
RE isn't doing his/her job.


I say this because we just got our new M7i with those very specs 5 days
ago. Our sales rep originally had us on the 400 Mhz RE, and then
zero-cost upgraded the quote to the 850 Mhz RE and we took it.


Also, if you are looking into the M7i, you can get the Firewall ASM
included/integrated on the FE, but if you order it later, you have to
order it as a separate PIC, and it will cost more.

Hi.

M7i routers can be ordered with 256 or 512 MB RAM system board memory;
any guidelines on what usage scenarios would make 512MB desirable or
even mandatory ?

Our need is a Internet router with 3 full-routing transit feeds and a
bunch of peering connections that made us specify more memory for the
routing engine, but that may or may not impact forwarding engine
requirements. AS and J-Flow are already included in the RFP.
