Ok, so I currently manage 3 different homes each with their own ASG. Each house has pretty beefy bandwidth (35Mb/35Mb async FiOS). With ASG 8 I noticed that my now aging hardware on two of the ASGs is running pretty hard (40-70% CPU, 70% RAM, 40% swap, etc). I thought rather than replace these two ASGs with bigger, better hardware, I might try putting REDs at those two locations.
Total IPs will almost certainly be under 50 at all times (there are normally less than 5 devices at one house, and less than 15 each at the other two).
Has anyone here done anything like this and have any recommendations/cautions/other solutions?
The third ASG has a much faster CPU and I can stick 4GB (it has 2 currently) of RAM in it if needed.
Also, I don't know if it's appropriate to ask this question, but does anyone know a ballpark figure for the cost of a RED? Is it somewhere in the $100-200 range? Don't need exact figures, just something +/-$50 so I can ballpark the cost difference of the RED vs purchasing new equipment.
Thanks,
-Bob
