Unless your datacenter will only provision 120v 20A A + B in your rack... nothing else. Like just a single 20A and its redundant. Then it'll die pretty quick. ;-)

At least the chassis is. The 6500 will never die.

I'm looking at primarily switching, though something that does VPLS, CE or similar features would be nice. Something with TRILL or a TRILL derivative would be nice too. I'm not talking Juniper MX scale. Light on power is one of the biggest priorities. It doesn't need to have a million ports, either. I do like the Nexus 9k that we've got, but in some areas, something with more functionality would be nice. I'm perfectly aware that what I want feature wise may not be available cost wise. ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions Midwest Internet Exchange The Brothers WISP
