[isp-bgp] "Transparent transit" between neighbors ebgp

Hello every body
I try to connect two sides that run ebgp (between loopbacks interfaces)
but I prefer that my networtk be "transparent". All the routers are
Cisco.

Hi all,

I want to upgrade my 2821 so it can take the full routing table + some
prefixes of my peers. I know Cisco sells RAM-Upgrades, but they're quite
expensive. Somewhere on the Internet I read, that it's possible to use
=84standard DDR-Ram=93 in Cisco-Routers. Can someone tell me if that is
true? I've seen a Picture of = Cisco-Certified RAM for the 2821 on which
I could read: "PC2100, DDR, 266MHz, ECC".

Thanks for your Help!

Mat

There are a couple of companies I'm aware of that make memory that fits
cisco routers and we have used some in the lab kit

I'm not so sure about third Party certified memory though Cisco have
always said to is if it didnly come through us or a recognised channel
partner TAC wouldn't support it

NPE-G1 maxes out at 650Kpps, which is not even a full 1 Gigabit
capability if you are being DDoSed with small sized packets.

Dell PowerEdge 1850 running FreeBSD 4.11 with modified fastforwarding
blows GigE out to physical limit at ~1.4Mpps.

I would honestly go for a used Juniper M5 or pick up an M7i when you
start doing more than 100Mbps of traffic and need to plan for
scalability. Or if you are experienced enough to deal with open source
software and caveats, get a nice FreeBSD box and optimize it :).

Where are you getting your data from? The Cisco site says the G1 does
1Mpps, and I see I was wrong about the 4 ports it only has three built
in. The 7206 routers are highly reliable and proven in a BGP
environment. If you really need something bigger than the 1Mpps, you can
get a 7600OSR router. It has a 256Gbps switching fabric and 30Mpps. So
of the large Catalyst switches would do well also.

Please don't try to teach James anything about routing. If James says 
600kpps and cisco says 1Mpps, James has the correct number. :)

7206 are highly reliable and proven in a small non-ddos environment.
7206 
(non-NPE-G1) is basically a PC-architecture router, all-software. NPE-G1

is hardware accelerated, but it maxes out at 600-700kpps under ddos 
(random src/dst).

I was just asking where he gets his data from :) (As in real world test
maybe, as I am sure there are better sources than the manufacturer...)

Perhaps you should throw a goodly number of small UDP packets at a G1.
The router will tip over way before Cisco's stated limits.

Real-world experience, yup.  Installation of NPE-G1 for gig-e transits
at an ISP environment proved to be installing a maginot defense line
when 
the network got DDoSed, before gig circuits even saturated.

And I then learned the lesson:

"Failure of Layer3 begins when $customer_use_requirements and
$lets_build  do not corelate."

Just curious, What did you move to now? A juniper or something else?

Yea, M7i from Juniper.
