Are you pulling a default route down via BGP from multiple providers and
nothing else? I would think a 3700/3800 series would work okay. I don't
have any 3800's but I do have several 3700's (same platform architecture)
and I think they're excellent. 3800's will take a lot more RAM though (up
to 1 GB) so I think it would work just fine for you.
My 0.02

Subject: OT: Internet Router
We are currently thinking about downgrading from a Cisco 7206 for our
Internet facing router.
Does anyone have a suggestion on what models would work for this? We only do
a default route via BGP.
I've been looking at the 3800 series but I'm not sure how good it would be
for this role. I didn't see too many options between 3600 and 7000.
I guess the only thing I would be worried about is processing power. It
looks like the 3800 series can hold as much memory as we currently have in
our 7206.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thx,
Bill
