Clinging to a budget, we were looking at a pair 7304/NSE-100 linked by STM4 in-between and taking a total of 7 full BGP feeds through FE/GE uplinks on the edges. Other features we wish to enable are: MPLS TE, VRF, PW, ACLs, iBGP and OSPF.

From the shiny sheet, NSE could handle up to 3.5 Mpps at 64. Also says it can push 4Gbps bidirectional.

Wary of getting small-sized packet floods of 49B or less, I'm not quite sure if those boxes will be able to forward very small packets without issues.

Am I looking at the right boxes or it must be the big ones (ASR1K and 6K/76xx/12K)? As much as possible, we'd love to stick with Cisco. Any relevant good/bad experiences on 7304's would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

roy
