I don't do sync serial on anything. As result, I don't know much about
the sync serial devices that are available.
Gigabyte MB (Don't remember the exact model)
256M PC100 memory
PIII 450 (I believe. It might be a 500. Don't remember.)
ForeRunner 200E OC3 cards
Netgear GA620 GigaE cards
DLINK DFE570TX 4-port FastE cards
Redhat Linux
ATM-0.78 http://icawww1.epfl.ch/linux-atm/dist.html
Zebra 0.89 http://www.zebra.org
I have built 6 linux routers either for use in our network or for
customers who couldn't afford Cisco or Juniper gear. They're all BGP
speakers with an average of 90K prefixes and 3 peers.
Here is the output of sh ip bgp sum on one of these routers:
