if you want build by yourself I will suggest gentoo and/or freebsd with bird (http://bird.network.cz/) for routing stuff (maybe with 10G nics). Don't put all this in one box. +1 On Thu, Dec 26, 2013 at 5:33 PM, Nick Cameo <symack () gmail com> wrote:
Hello Everyone, We are looking to put together a 2u server with a few PCIe 3 x8 (recommendations appreciated). The router will take a voip transcoding line card, and will act as an edge router for a telecom company. For things like BGP (Quagga, Zebra, all that lovely stuff!!!), static routes, and firewall capabilities we are thinking gentoo linux stripped for sure however, what about the BSDs? FreeBSD or OpenBSD. Any comments, feedback, does, and don'ts are much appreciated. Kind Regards, Nick.
