I don't need the packet rate except to survive a DDoS, 1gbps @ 64byte packets = 2.3Mpps which Cisco says the NPE-G2 can do. My normal data rates are an order of magnitude less in PPS. I have multiple upstreams, My plan is to get a 7201 (or J-series) for each upstream, basically dedicate a router per upstream. 2 GigE upstreams, 2 routers, GigE link between the two (iBGP) . I like the 7201 with 4 GigEs, 1 for upstream, 1 for x-router link, 2 for HSRP to core switches. -Matt On Sep 9, 2007, at 9:33 PM, Howard Leadmon wrote: > > If you really need that high packet rate, then I would agree the > 7201 sounds > like a great solution.
