Hi Folks,   We seem to have a new ISR with higher throughput available (up to 350 Mbps, 250Mbps for 4P version) - the C1117 also seems to have integrated FTTC DSL similar to the 887VA/K9 so it ticks a lot of boxes.   Questions:-   1. There does not seem to be a "Security bundle" for this model.  Is there?  Or do I have to use       1 x C1117-4PLTEEA  (for UK use)       1 x SL-1100-4P-SEC= 2. Price point seems to be WAY better than a 4321 with WAY better throughput with the same feature set (minus the expansion capability in the chassis).  Am I missing something?  3. Has anyone used one in the wild yet?   I'd like a 'standard' box we can deploy that would cope with 350Mpbs Fibre and FTTC, and this looks like a good option, so be interested to hear opinions on this?                               ...

Hi There, most of our customers already have VMware license and use Veeam backup software to do image-level VM backups of any VMs on their VMware ESXi hosts, so I have a few questions regarding the BE6000.  (we are about to start selling these). a) What license of VMware is included with BE6000?  b) Are the VMs able to be backed-up  and restored with Veeam? C) Can this ESXi host be added to en existing Vmware cluster? It would be advantageous if this was the case as it would allow an instant restore (or indeed being able to run the VMs or different hardware if there is a server failure of the BE6000).  Also would be a cheaper and more fault tolerant design than the 2 x BE6000 solution. thanks, Peter. ...
