Hello,

I'm not really familiar with cisco stuff so your help will be
appreciated. I'm looking for a Cisco router with 2 x FastEthernet
interfaces to work with 34Mbit traffic and max two BGP peers (full BGP
route tables). However it is possible that in short time it will have to
work with ~80Mbit traffic or more (Gigabit ethernet or ATM). It must
have P2P detector to shape this particular traffic to given rate.

I thought of 7204 or 75xx, but isn't 7500 to old ?

Tired-of-nortel user.

Yes, the 7500 series is definitely EOL.
The 7200 series rocks, also may want to look at the 3825/3845.

i dont think there is 155 Mbps ATM on the 37xx / 38xxs, so 7200s would be
better.

7200 is probably the most flexible IOS router and certainly one of the most
common high throughput units - all the wierd stuff ends up on it......

Well, sure there is: http://tinyurl.com/cozsb

Agreed that the 7200 is a much better choice though...

missed that one - our cisco SE was asked about this when the 38xxs came out
and
"no - there isnt and wont be an 155 M adaptor"

obviously someone with a bit more clout got them to change their mind.
