Re: Zebra vs Gated



	I don't know exactly ! What kind of comparation ?
	I test zebra on a Pentium II/400Mhz and on a Pentium II/350Mhz!
In my tests zebra don't use more processor. What is price of medium PC (
Pentium II/III) with some RAM and DISK and what is price of Cisco 2500 ? 
But, in a CISCO 3600 you can put more interface than a PC and BGP software
on Cisco have more feature than Zebra. If you inttend to use a Cisco 2500
for a BGP router with large routing table is possibile to don't have
enough memory. Into PC you can easy upgrade RAM.

P.S.:	In my oppinia between a Cisco 3600 and Zebra I prefer Cisco 3600.
