We would like to purchase a ATM card for a Cisco 4500. Someone has mentioned to us that its ATM card is not very stable, although I doubt it. 4500 series router has been on the market for such a long time after all. I wonder if anyone can give us some previous experience. Good or bad and what type, all welcome.
The first customer aggregation routers we had at CLEAR were cisco 4500/4700 routers with multimode OC3 ATM adapters. I don't remember any instability problems. The switches we were using were StrataCom BPXes with those low-density multimode OC3 interfaces (I forget the model names now). I also remember using the same routers in the lab with Bay/Centillion 5720 ATM switches, and I don't remember any instability problems there either. Of course, it's possible that some dark operational horror has disappeared from my memory in an act of subconscious self-defence.
