Re: 7206 VXR NPE-G1 throughput

This will be handling dorm traffic at a college so it's mostly download. The 7206 handles our 300 Mbps circuit just fine, but we are moving it to our 600Mbps circuit. At peak we've seen the following numbers for that circuit: 30 second input rate 559982000 bits/sec, 55809 packets/sec 30 second output rate 55429000 bits/sec, 32598 packets/sec 267756984712 packets input, 25152556755 bytes, 0 no buffer This is the interface that connects to our provider. As you can see its almost all download traffic. Our ASR1002 handles it without a sweat but I'm a little skeptical of whether the 7206 will hold up. This depends on multiple variables. The 7200 is a single-CPU platform where CPU can go sky-high when using features like ACL's, QoS, IPv6 and you name it.. Also, changing from IOS 12.4 to 15 increased our CPU usage with another 10%+. Stick to the bare minimum of features you really need and you will be fine. Regards, Remco Bressers Signet B.V.

I will be moving the BCP38 ACL closer to the hosts before the upgrade so the ACL will be a bit shorter in the future. We won't be doing any QOS or IPv6 on it but it does take a full BGP table. I just need it to last another year or two out of it if possible. I believe this platform goes End of Support in Spring 2016.

Re: Cisco ADSL2/VDSL2 Voip Router
Hi Nick, Cisco 867VAE and 887VA are pretty fine routers. Regards, Remco Bressers Signet B.V.

The router part is easy however, they need it to support their ADSL/VDSL connection PPoE, and all that lovely stuff. Can you gents and ladies kindly recommend something that would fit all. preferably the cisco route. If you have one not in use, we would be interested in hearing from you. Kind Regards, Nick.

Re: Voice Peering?
I also thought GRX peering was only data and sms. There's a SIP peering point on the NL-IX though. Look at http://www.nl-ix.net/solutions/voice-peering/ for more. Regards, Remco Bressers Signet B.V.
