Are you planning on accepting full routes from both providers? Have you
considered only accepting customer routes from them? I'm not sure, but
I think 128MB would handle the full table from two providers, but it may
not be necessary depending on what you're trying to accomplish.
In our case, I accept customer routes only from two providers which
amounts to about 35,000 routes from one and 6000 from the other. I then
tweaked some static default routes to help even things out a bit. This
is all on a 3640 with 128MB of DRAM and I've got *plenty* of room left.
As far as processing goes you should be fine. This 3640 is probably
overkill. It hardly knows it's turned on! :-)
HTH,

What is the recommended router if I wanted to run bgp on my dual
internet
connection. I currently have a 2651 and will be upgrading it to 128MB
but
am not sure if that's enough to run bgp considering the size of the bgp
routing table. Thank you.
