<P><FONT SIZE=2>Can anyone give a breakdown of the different kinds of content deliver networks? For example, we have Akamai, which appears to be a pure Layer 3 network that is tailored to pushing relatively small files like web pages and we have Lime Light Networks, which is a mix of Layer 1 and Layer 3, that focuses on bigger files like video streams.<BR>
<BR>
Any insights out there? And what are the major challenges in making scalable content delivery networks?<BR>

We're Juniper right now, but we're looking at the Foundry MLX line for<BR>
possible future sites due to cost/performance. So I'd be interested in<BR>
folks' experience with Foundry's Terathon gear and associated IronWare<BR>
revs. Its supposed to be a lot better than the JetCore stuff<BR>
(cam-trashing problems etc.) but it'd be nice to hear what folks are<BR>
seeing in real life.<BR>
<BR>
Best Regards,<BR>

Any experiences of Foundry routing w/ more complex protocols (PIM,<BR>
MSDP, various IPv6 stuff)?<BR>
<BR>
The last time we tried running non-C/J as a router was a very Extreme<BR>
experience and we swore never again to touch similar router underdogs<BR>
in the future.<BR>
