If your after "cheep cheep" look at Mikrotik Routerboard, they have many different options of CPU vs port density.

I haven't had much trouble with them, I use them everywhere - be wary of crappy wall-wart PSUs that's the only trouble I've had.

Otherwise I'll leave to other people to respond about what other manufacturers would be interested in helping you part with significantly more money. :-)

Cheers

Hi all,

Given the handover options from Chorus for UFB (http://www.chorus.co.nz/file/1591), does anybody have any recommendations about a cost effective GE based node that can do QinQ happily? Port density probably only needs to be 2-4 ports. Control/forwarding redundancy �not required.

And, preferably with the capability to set individual policers and/or queue rates on each sub-interface.

I don't know if chorus give you the option to do the rate limiting for you or not - does anybody know?

Cheers,
Anton
