If you have one eBGP session in your whole network, sure.
However if you have more than one,
I think it's safe to define "real hardware" as hardware with ASIC's as
opposed to software based solutions.

Let's blur the line a bit more:
CompactPCI? NICs such as those [apparently] offered by Cavium... or any
other number of places working ARM/Freescale, MIPS, or PowerPC magic on
NICs?
What is "real" hardware, anyway? Would

I'm continually amazed by the number of people who manage to conflate
two entirely different issues here.
There's *TWO* axes here:

What operational relevance does this conversation, or the similiar

Hi All
Actually, what is the different hardware router VS linux router?
Have you had experience to compare real router eg: cisco VS linux router?
eg: streaming speed... tcp / udp
