I didnt pay much attention till now. My boss wants to go multihomed and run BGP. We have a 2501 cisco router, and i'm pretty confident theres no way on gods green earth we can do it on a 2501. both serials are used. And i dont think it has the ability to hold a full routing table? So im thinking of a 4000 series. But i need some evidence so to speak to tell the suits why the 2501 is not a good choice. Also can anyone recomend a good 4000 series router? to replace our 2501 with? Thanks for the info. Chris -- ===================================| Webspan Inc., ISP Division.
