These are great routers. I used the MLX16s in the same capacity, before the=
newer model MLXe with upgraded management card specs. Should work just fin=
e for that.

We are looking at Brocade MLX routers to act as Internet edge routers. The=
y will initially handle two to four full tables, plus peering on an IX. Th=
e price is certainly attractive. We are coming from Cisco 7600 series devi=
ces. Can anyone comment about their use of them? Are you happy with them?=
Any gotchas? Particularly we are interested in convergence time to full =
FIB population.
