[isp-bgp] Re: What Router?

[James <haesu@...>]

	it all depends on how much packets/bandwidth you are looking to
	push...

	generally, when looking for a router that you want to take full
	bgp routes on (which i think is what you want), you want a box
	that has minimum of 256meg ram, more being desirable.

	it may be costly, but for us, a juniper m7i at a colo environment
	works great
