Hello,

For setting up a BGP router i'd like to use a NIC which gives some flexibility.

my wishes are:
-Quad (or more)
-PCIe bus as preference
-SFP based with or whitout SFP modules
-good performance and stability
-preferred supported by standard driver in kernel.

and like to know the cost

i've have a look at:
PEG4SFPi6
and
Niagara 4NE-76-4SFP
Both intel 82576 based, but i'm not sure if the will work out of the box, and i'm not sure this is the best buy

regards in advance.
