Interested on where you are buying transit at $1750/mo for full 10G ports ($0.175/meg)? On Fri, Dec 27, 2013 at 8:18 PM, Baldur Norddahl <baldur.norddahl () gmail com>wrote:

Baldur, you mention $200k total to move 10gb with Juniper(whichseems insanely off to me). Look into Brocades CER line, you can move 4x 10gbe per chassis for under 12k.I was saying $100k for two Juniper routers total. Perhaps we could get back on track, instead of trying to second guess what we did or did not budget for. You have absolute no information about our business plans. The Brocade BR-CER-2024F-4X-RT-AC - Brocade NetIron CER 2024F-4X goes for about $21k and we need two of them. *That is enough to buy a full year of unlimited 10G internet. And even then, we would be short on 10G ports.* It is not that we could not bring that money if that was the only way to do it. It is just that I have so many other things that I could spend that money on, that would further our business plans so much more. I can not even say if the Juniper or the Brocade will actually solve my problem. I need it to route to ten of thousands of VLANS (Q-in-Q), both with IPv4 and IPv6. It needs to act as IPv6 router on every VLAN, and very few devices seems to like having that many IP-addresses assigned. It also needs to do VRRP and proxy arp for every VLAN. The advantage of a software solution is that I can test it all before buying. Also to some limited degree, I am able to fix shortcomings myself. Regards, Baldur
