I agree with you that fbsd (or any other linux) is much better than cisco in terms of stability. The cisco routers at my site are crashing like cron jobs while the fbsd boxes usually have long uptimes. :) off topic: I used to be a network admin some time ago, but no longer true now....and unfortunately, in the past I had only very few chances to deal with interdomain routing, mainly in lab. I'm afraid I have forgotten everything by now :( ----- Original Message ----- From: "Goran Gajic" To: Sent: Wednesday, March 09, 2005 6:01 Subject: Re: multiple uplinks from ISP > > Hi, > > I have used succesfuly FBSD 5.2.1 as BGP router and it is rock stable with > quagga (check out www.quagga.net) - more stable then 30k $ Cisco 7206 :)) > Problem is if you have AS and LIR and if you don't there are other > solutions.
