It appears to be comprable to a Juniper J-6350, except that the J-6350 has more slots, no spinning drives to fail, more software functionality, a compatible path to higher end routers, and costs less. That looks to be the highest-end Vyatta, and the J-6350 is a very low-end Juniper. The question started out about ISPs, and as even a small ISP, a J-6350 is a low-end, limited use router; we have one in a small remote POP. Basically, there's nothing wrong with using Linux in a router, but it needs to be a router first, not a server case with some router cards. Junipers are built around commodity Intel CPUs running FreeBSD (the forwarding hardware uses custom ASICs on the mid- to high-end routers). -- Chris Adams <cmadams@xxxxxxxxxx> Systems and Network Administrator - HiWAAY Internet Services I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
