Title: Cisco 3640 grunty enough for full-BGP routing?
A CCIE, experienced in the service provider market, just recently told me that a 3640 *might* be OK at first, but it would really be a strain to keep the entire routing table.  His reasoning is that 128MB RAM barely covers the requirements and will allow no room for growth.  He went on to say that if you can, use 256MB, 512MB, etc. as new routes that are added in the future will drive your memory requirements beyond 128MB.

Hi all,

Just a quick question regarding 3640 with 128MB DRAM.  Will it be grunty enough to run full-BGP, talking to two different providers and getting full routes, with one E1 2Mbps WAN link to each provider?  What's your minimum configuration from experience?

TIA,

Jeff Wang
