Hello,
we need to implement MPLS Traffic Enginnerring with Fast Rerouting. Which cisco hardware would fit best for that?
Due to other considerations ASR-routers are not in scope.
br + thx

Hello @waschminator,
The Cisco ISR 4000 series routers offer a range of models with various performance levels. They support MPLS Traffic Engineering and Fast Reroute capabilities. The ISR 4000 series routers are versatile and can be a good fit for small to medium-sized networks.
Cisco Catalyst C9300 support MPLS aslo but no fast Reroute with him...

thanks for the feedback...beyond ASR also the ISR is not an option (due to number of available ports). catalyst 9500 would have been our choice...but also no FRR-support.

If you're open to other series within the ASR family, the ASR 1000 series offers a range of models that are designed for various scalability and performance needs. They provide robust support for MPLS Traffic Engineering and fast rerouting.

ASR and ISR are not an option

Hello @waschminator ,
Metro ethernet switches were a good fit for this kind of scenario
see
see Table 4 they support MPLS TE + FRR with the appropriate license
Hope to help
