How may BGP peers are you planning on homing on this box? If you're looking at more than a handful, I'd even say that 256M may not be enough for long...

Well,
In my experience it depends on the model of router. I had a 3640 (granted, it's old) with 128MB that was just fine until a couple of months ago, now it's not enough. For one BGP table you will have to have at least 256MB in a 36xx router. Our 720xVXR routers currently have 256MB in them as well, but we've already ordered upgrades to 1GB with new NPE-G1s...

Subject: minimum requirements for a full bgp feed
Hello All,
If I wish to purchase a Cisco router that handles a full internet BGP feed what are the minimum specs I should be looking at?
