….and I still love Mikrotik’s, but the CCR1072 crash/reboot issue was a big turnoff.

I’m really loving Arista these days. An Arista L3 switch would probably do everything you’d want. They do have routers too of course, but switches are cheap enough to keep a spare. Arista’s command syntax is identical to Cisco, so there’s that too. -Adam From: AF <af-boun...@af.afmug.com <mailto:af-boun...@af.afmug.com> > On Behalf Of TJ Trout Sent: Tuesday, January 18, 2022 2:27 PM To: Chuck McCown <ch...@go-mtc.com <mailto:ch...@go-mtc.com> > Cc: AnimalFarm Microwave Users Group <af@af.afmug.com <mailto:af@af.afmug.com> > Subject: Re: [AFMUG] Dual DIA router Yeah just get a juniper, even if you go used, i think it's a front loaded investment with a great roi in headaches saved On Tue, Jan 18, 2022, 11:25 AM Chuck McCown <ch...@go-mtc.com <mailto:ch...@go-mtc.com> > wrote: We are actually routerless at the moment, buying access from another company that has some Cisco big iron there. It was a great way to start out from scratch but the economics are such that it will pay us to do our own router and own DIA now.

I'm sure it can do many connections using a switch and vlans. What is the specs you want and budget? Baltic vengence 3 is a good option, or mx204 is the best option probably but 25k+ On Tue, Jan 18, 2022, 11:13 AM Chuck McCown < <mailto:ch...@go-mtc.com> ch...@go-mtc.com> wrote: To do dual DIA we are going to have to do a new router. Or used router. Last time down this road we were kicking tires on Juniper. I don’t have a ton of customers on my new system yet but I can foresee 2000 in the next 2-3 years. What would be a good value there? I really don’t want a $25K router right now.

The problem is having the two backhaul circuits. Maybe I could vlan them. No harm in quoting HE. Anyone got a sales contact for me in Utah?

Hurricane electric is 700-800$ on a 36mo term I believe, some UT locations with few customers might be an extra $500. Telia is a very good option but won't be quite as inexpensive as Cogent or HE, but they have really good routes and the full internet. I can be your advocate on these types of orders, one email and I'll aggregate the quotes and send them back to you, carriers pay me 10% or so out of their side of the deal, you still pay the same.

A couple of years ago they quoted a special 10G flat for $1200/month. Hopefully that same or better deal is still available.
