I've used Mikrotiks for everything except BGP, but we don't use Mikrotiks for BGP only because we already had BGP on a different platform...personally, when it comes to BGP, I think people are better off running it on devices they are familiar with rather then trying to learn the idiosyncrasies of a new platform.I will refrain from making any smart-ass comments about Mikrotik and BGP, but no: there is no reason whatever that you can't take your internet feeds from different locations, so long as you have a good quality interior network link between those two locations, and your two routers talk iBGP to each other. Just make sure your boxes have enough RAM to cope with a full dfz feed. I.e. it's just the same as using any other router in this regard. Nick
