Yes, actually. That's right! We have only one unit in our network, and I forgot the extra 2x slots are blocked, but present :-). In any case, at least since 2007, we saw no benefit in buying the 4-slot chassis (and now that I recall more clearly, no space-gain benefit). Price-wise, really no difference with the 6-slot chassis. > ... now the 7201 / 7301 are indeed much smaller. And mega work horses, too. We've been using them for route reflection in one of our networks, and they just keep chugging along. Tons of peers, many full feeds, 2% idling CPU. If only I could squeeze 16GB of RAM into them :-). Mark.
