The cheaper alternative to me has actually always been to get some old cisco hardware with the proper interfaces and use it for media conversion. I have a 6500 with Sup1As in it. It can't take BGP feeds with the amount of memory it has, but with the right cards, it will give my router Ethernet and push a few million pps with no problem. Sounds like he's getting Ethernet from his provider though, so this probably isn't an issue. -- Alex Thurlow Blastro Networks http://www.blastro.com http://www.roxwel.com http://www.yallwire.com
