A 2811 will do BGP just fine... 760mb of RAM and plenty of CPU. In terms
of interfaces, it can nominally take four GigE and eighteen 100Base-T
interfaces, though I believe it's only rated for 4.8gbps total throughput.
How real that number actually is I don't guess we'll know until someone
tries it in the lab. I haven't had time yet.
