Steve,

Thanks for the feedback. I only want to run these in my study lab, I'd
hate to even try running BGP on a 1600 in production.

Now I just have to find some inexpensive 16mb flash cards. Anyone have
any lying around collecting dust?

Hi Tim,

I used three 1600 routers in my CCIE practice lab environment running
BGP
and they worked fine. Each router had 16 MB flash and 18 MB DRAM.

I have never used them in a real word environment though so I couldn't
tell
you what happens if you start loading them down with any significant
amount
of BGP routes.

Per the Cisco Feature Navigator, the 1600 routers can handle BGP with IP
Plus in 12.1(9a) and above.

Is anyone doing this? How well does it work for lab stuff?

I have a couple 1601's that only have 6mb's flash, that I'd be willing
to upgrade to 12mb if I can run BGP on them. (the IP Plus image needs
12mb flash).

Anyone care to comment?
