Actually, the same backplane (identical architecture), just less slots. 
I can't recall what interfaces you needed (gig and atm I think), which 
would fill the two slots. If you wanted Fast-E at that point, you would 
need to go to the 3000 for the fixed ports on the bottom. Also, if you 
have a chance to buy the MPLS-gig cards, they do have additional 
hardware space that do allow for full ACL and filtering with HRT enabled.


>>Used Riverstone 3000 will do it, but you would need to turn on HRT (like 
>>CEF) to keep it from falling over which kills your ACL functionality. If
