Review of the Ubiquiti EdgeRouter Lite

[KuJoe]

It seems that these routers are being used mostly by ISPs who push a lot more traffic that we did. That's good enough for me.

The Mikrotik CCR should support XFP's now.

We've used the ERLite3 for a few clients now and they seem to work pretty well.  I haven't configured BGP yet.  According to my research it's supposed to handle a full table, but it looks to me like the config would be command line only for BGP - I saw nothing in the GUI for setting up BGP.

The GUI is limited but the CLI is very similar to Vyatta so it's a piece of cake to configure.

 

[NodeBytes]

BGP is CLI only.

And for those of you who might need assistance with the CLI, feel free to PM me with specific questions. I'll be happy to help where I can. I'm not an expert and I particularly hate networking, but I'm comfortable with a lot of the basics like BGP, tunnels, static routes, and HA (VRRP).
