Hey there,
I would run from the 7206+NPE-G1 in this capacity. We have not had luck
actually getting a gig worth of traffic flowing through them. Great
small site router, but not much on the throughput side at all.

Subject: GigE Peering Router
=20
Hello,
=20
I was looking for some opinions on Cisco vs. Foundry (specifically
Cisco's NPE-G1 vs a NetIron 4802). The application is mainly content
delivery - outbound heavy traffic with an emphasis on quality of
delivery.=20
=20
Basically I'm looking at the 4802 because we're able to provision GigE
for all the providers, so we don't really need an architecture that can
support OC-type interfaces. The size is also attractive for some of our
smaller PoPs.=20
=20
I'm also intereted in failover/hot-standby capabilities on the Foundry
as we have had much experience with them.
=20
Best,
=20
