What box for this set of requirements?

At least 16 ports 10/100/1000 VLAN switch

GRE tunnel interfaces that support multicast

1 or 2 RU

Cisco pulled support for tunnel interfaces in the workgroup switches, and ISR series routers NMs only go to 10/100. Do you need to go to a 6500 to get that combination of 2 features?

Use this Cisco Catalyst 6500 Series Switches Design guide for your needs.

Hi,

It depends whether you need hardware acceleration of the feature or not. If so, then yes, you'll need a 6500, but if not what about a 4948?
