Thanks Bernd. 

As you perhaps has seen, we are now thinking about a 3825 or 7201. We think
both will do the job, but the 7201 will have more power.

Kind Regards

Patrick

Thanks for the link to the Router performance sheet. Do you see perhaps
also some impacts about the new as-numbers or ipv6 for any of the smaller
solutions (28xx, 38xx)?

Hi Pascale

That's an answer I was looking for. 

Some more questions. Why you suggest the SP Service IOS?
What's about the 3825/45 Series? Would that be the "golden middle way"? Will
this box give us a little more capacity, so there is little bit of air for
the router, or is the only way to go for a 2851 or a 7xxx System?

Kind Regards

As a minimal BGP setup I usually suggest to have one 2851 per upstream. It 
needs some upgrades, 1Gb DRAM and SP SERVICES IOS. This router has two 
GigabitEthernet interface so you can use one for wan and one for lan. You can 
also add a 4 ports 10/100 switch module if you need multiple lan connexions 
(limited to 100mbps).

If you have multiple upstream providers and therefor multiple routers, I 
suggest to have a separate lan (maybe vlan) with all the routers in it for the

This is, indeed, a minimal setup, I wont protect you from attacks of any kind 
and the router capacity is limited.

Ciao Thomas

Besten Dank für den Input. Im Moment haben wir den 7201 oder 
den 3825 in die nähere Auswahl einbezogen. So wie wir das sehen
ist der 7201 ja ein 720x mit NPE-G2 (einfach halt nur mit
1 Slot statt mit 4 oder 6), was ja dann vermutlich
für die nächsten Zeit reichen sollte. Oder sehen wir das
falsch.

Grüsse

Patrick

Hoi Patrick,

ich perso"nlich wu"rde nicht mit einer kleinen Cisco 2811 oder dergleichen
anfangen. Mit vollem RAM-Ausbau bekommst Du dort hoechstwahrscheinlich
nur 1x Full Table rein und hast kaum Platz fu"r notwendige zuku"nftige
Erweiterungen.

Ich kann Dir die 7206VXR inkl. NPE-G1 oder NPE-G2 empfehlen. Die G1 hat
1 GB RAM, die G2 max. 2 GB RAM. Dort bist Du auf alle Fa"lle auf der
sicheren Seite. Die G1 gibt es so ab 7-8k und die G2 so round about 10k
Euro wenn Du geschickt verhandelst. Hier hast Du auch noch Reserven fu"r
zuku"nftige Features. (IPv6, MPLS, etc.)

Wenn Du weniger Geld ausgeben willst, stell Dir einen "dicken" Server
auf PC-Basis hin und installiere einfach ein Quagga drauf. Der kann auch
alle neuen Features die man so braucht (ASN 32-bit, IPv6, etc...) und
kostet _deutlich_ weniger Geld als Vendor C. Je nach Hardware bist Du
mit 1-2k Euro dabei. Wir haben am SwissIX auch einen Linux-Quagga based
Router am laufen. Sehr stabil, sehr wartungsarm. Allerdings machen wir
auch nur bis max. 100mbps am SwissIX. Die zwei Xeon-CPUs langweilen sich
vor sich hin und von den installaierten 8GB RAM ist noch Platz fu"r 100x
Full-Table ;)
Vom Look&Feel her ist das Quagga-CLI fast identisch mit dem Cisco-CLI,
sogar teilweise die gleichen Befehle.



HTH,
Thomas

Hi Patrick,

The Cisco's 7201 works perfectly as CPE, they support most protocol and are
even a bit evolutive.

As your budget is a limitation, one option is to get a 7201 from the
official market, so with all guarantees and support you need from Cisco and
your reseller and grab a second one from the grey market / refurbished. You
can find some fair deals on ebay for US 8000$, or even have a second 3825
from ebay for 2-3k. Then you may want to have your 7201 populated with
ISP#1 on 0/0, SwissIX on 0/1 and your HSRP link on 0/2, then you would have
your ISP#2 on the 0/0 and HSRP on the 0/1 of your 3825.

You will have to pick the right ISP on the main router and you have your HA
routing cluster working fine for a fair price. Once you have the budget to
consolidate you grab a second 7201 and you just do it the best way. 

Cheers.

Hi Alexandre

Thanks for your suggestion. The solution with a 7201 looks very interesting
and since one 7201 is near of the price of two 3825, that could be perhaps
the solutions for which we should go. The only thing is, that with two separate
boxes, we are better covered in the case of hardware failure.

Hi Patrick,

I've seen your message on SwiNOG list for your multihoming project.

If you have the budget and want to stick with Cisco, I would suggest you
using 7201. They works very well and comes with 1GB or RAM. The end-user
price in CHF is ~ 26200CHF, but you can probably get a good 5000 CHF
discount since it is likely sold around 18k at reseller price.

Ohterwise as you mentioned the 3800 series can be a way to go. The 3825
with a RAM upgrade to 1GB would bet a very good one, with end-user price of
10K (with 256 MB of RAM) you can probably grab one for 8500 CHF.

If you are looking for a provider to offer you ASN, IP v4/v6 PI blocks, or
even hardware please feel free to knock at our door. We price very
attractive and have suppliers in Switzerland for hardware from the normal
market. We are also able to provide you very attractive IP transit services
if you are somewhere between Equinix 1 and ICT-Center Zurich.

Wish you the best for your project!

Cheers.

As a minimal BGP setup I usually suggest to have one 2851 per upstream. It 
needs some upgrades, 1Gb DRAM and SP SERVICES IOS. This router has two 
GigabitEthernet interface so you can use one for wan and one for lan. You can 
also add a 4 ports 10/100 switch module if you need multiple lan connexions 
(limited to 100mbps).

If you have multiple upstream providers and therefor multiple routers, I 
suggest to have a separate lan (maybe vlan) with all the routers in it for the 
iBGP full mesh.

This is, indeed, a minimal setup, I wont protect you from attacks of any kind 
and the router capacity is limited. However you should be able to route at 
least 100-200mbps.

If you really need protection, you will need a 7200-NPE-G1/2 (which will be 
able to hold 700-1000mbps traffic), but still, its capacity to hold directed 
attacks is limited.
For best protection a suggest a 7600-RSP720-3CXL which is full hardware 
platform, protection of the router can be done in hardware (CPP, control-plane 
policy).

But this might be just a little bit too expensive...

Hoi Patrick

Ich würde schwer empfehlen, etwas grösseres reinzustellen. Erstens wächst
die BGP-Tabelle unaufhörlich, zweitens steigt der Memory-Bedarf mit jedem
angehängten Peering und drittens wirst du eventuell mal auf IPv6 migrieren
wollen/müssen. Um die Kosten im Griff zu behalten, kannst du locker einen
Router von einem Used-Hardware-Dealer beziehen - ich hab' das früher immer
so gemacht und bin damit nie schlecht gefahren (Kratzer am Gehäuse haben
keinen Einfluss auf den Durchsatz ;-))

Grüessli,
Viktor

In case of hardware platforms, one should also be very careful about
feature requirements - to avoid hitting something either unsupported
or handled in software by the CPU with unavoidable penalties.

see here:
http://www.cisco.com/web/partners/downloads/765/tools/quickreference/routerperformance.pdf

3725 = 179 mbit
3745 = 256 mbit

(best case calculated with 64 byte paket size)

you have to basicaly decide if you want a cpu driven box (28*, 38*, NPE-G1/G2) 
or a hardware 
driven box (sup32, sup720, c-120**)
in the first case you have to primary look for the cpu performance - in the 
second case you have to
look primary for hardware prefix puffer (256.000 prefixes versus 1 mio)

Hi Pascale

That's an answer I was looking for. 

Some more questions. Why you suggest the SP Service IOS?
What's about the 3825/45 Series? Would that be the "golden middle way"? Will
this box give us a little more capacity, so there is little bit of air for
the router, or is the only way to go for a 2851 or a 7xxx System?

As a minimal BGP setup I usually suggest to have one 2851 per upstream. It 
needs some upgrades, 1Gb DRAM and SP SERVICES IOS. This router has two 
GigabitEthernet interface so you can use one for wan and one for lan. You can 
also add a 4 ports 10/100 switch module if you need multiple lan connexions 
(limited to 100mbps).

If you have multiple upstream providers and therefor multiple routers, I 
suggest to have a separate lan (maybe vlan) with all the routers in it for the 
iBGP full mesh.

This is, indeed, a minimal setup, I wont protect you from attacks of any kind 
and the router capacity is limited. However you should be able to route at 
least 100-200mbps.

If you really need protection, you will need a 7200-NPE-G1/2 (which will be 
able to hold 700-1000mbps traffic), but still, its capacity to hold directed 
attacks is limited.
For best protection a suggest a 7600-RSP720-3CXL which is full hardware 
platform, protection of the router can be done in hardware (CPP, control-plane 
policy).

But this might be just a little bit too expensive...

Pascal

Hi Peter

Thanks for the input (incl. the hint for Kingston, which we already know ;-)).

Depending, on what we get form other as suggestion, we think that we will
start with a 28xx or 38xx router.

Hi Patrick,

The first step will be, to have 10 Mbit/s fixed or 100 Mbit/s  
burstable service
with an additional link to SwissIX where we want to do some privat  
peerings.


In a second step, we will add a second or a third upstream with  
about the

same speeds as the first connection. All connection should be done by
normal Ethernet connection.


As a minimal BGP setup I usually suggest to have one 2851 per  
upstream. It needs some upgrades, 1Gb DRAM and SP SERVICES IOS. This  
router has two GigabitEthernet interface so you can use one for wan  
and one for lan. You can also add a 4 ports 10/100 switch module if

Dear Patrick,

We have been using PC based (HP servers + SSD) Vyatta routers for some time, 
they work extremely well at the fraction of the price of Cisco gear.

We setup a full AS with two upstreams here at Sefanet, including full 
redundancy for a great price ... tell me if you are interested !

Re: [swinog] Full BGP Routing Router Requirements

If possible, it would be nice to survive a ddos ;-)

That the 256 MB isn't enough is clear. Because of this
we asked, if it will be enough just to upgrade to 768 MB to hold
a full routing table or not. Or to ask the question direct, what
is the minimum memory requirements to hold a full routing table from
one or two upstreams and have some privat peerings at SwissIX?

It's more a question of, if the 2811 can do this job and we
can add perhaps a second 2811 for a second upstream, or if we
should start over with a better solution. 

Since the router isn't too old, we like to use it for this. 
If your recommendation is to go with a 3845, then we have to
forget about idea to go with the 2811. 

We just like to know, what will be the minimum requirements
and the disadvantage of this minimum solution, and what will
be the best cost/performance solutions for that scenario.

Regards

Patrick

Betreff: RE: [swinog] Full BGP Routing Router Requirements

it depends

do you want to survive a ddos or not?

with 100 mbit link speed a 2811 will die for 100%
when you receive a dos/ddos in your direction

256 mb ram will also be to less for multihoming
if you want to have one or two full routing table.
It will be ok for two default routes and some 
peering routes.

what is your budget ?

typically a standard setup for a stable multihoming
scenario with two core routers build with cisco
can go from 10k until 20k euro
below 10k€ you don’t get a solution with solves 
all cases.
