We are currently using both Juniper MX480/960 with MS-MPC cards and Nokia 7750 SR with ISA or ESA cards. Its also well worth running dual stack IPv6 as you can bypass 40%+ traffic from the CGN process for all that CDN traffic.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='mso-fareast-language:EN-US'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><div style='border:none;border-top:solid #E1E1E1 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0cm 0cm 0cm'><p class=MsoNormal><b><span lang=EN-US>From:</span></b><span lang=EN-US> NANOG <nanog-bounces+tony=wicks.co.nz@nanog.org> <b>On Behalf Of </b>Steve Saner<br><b>Sent:</b> Friday, 19 February 2021 5:39 am<br><b>To:</b> nanog@nanog.org<br><b>Subject:</b> CGNAT<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><div><div><p class=MsoNormal>We are starting to look at CGNAT solutions.
