Hey Nanog,

Looking for a new metroE Edge switch that has more that 10x 10G ports. I am=
 having a hard time finding anything worthwhile without buying a full blown=
 ASR9K Chassis or another vendor's chassis.

Requirements
MEF compliant
1-2U small foot print
10G Ports will be used for ENNI's and UNI Ports
Prefer MPLS support for L2VPN's (EoMPLS and VPLS)
QOS per Sub interface\vlan on a ENNI
Cost effect 10G Ports
100G Not required


Looking at the
ASR920's - Great box for 1G but not enough 10G Ports Only 4
NCS5001/NCS5501 - New\unproven\probably buggy, Lacking some features & QOS =
issues :/
ASR900 - Looks good, but was hoping for a smaller foot print. If I remember=
 right the 8x10G Cards can't go in every slot.

Any other platforms I should be looking at?

Ciena, Brocade, Juniper?



Thanks in advance!

-Erik
