I agree too. They still have a bit of development to do on the IPv6
side, but they are getting there. We are using them with Cat 65XXs
with SXF Sup720-3BXLs and XMRs. We run ISIS, BGP, and BFD. Everything
they say works really does. We have been very pleased. Definitely put
them on your short list. The price per port can't be beat and their
support is stellar. If you want to reliably route IPv4 and IPv6 at
wire speeds regardless of packet size or rate and optionally filter
at wire speed too on all ports then they make a great box.
