No, it's definitely not here.
You need to sit down and draw up a TOR, which will include:
1. An approximate network diagram (even if at the level of five squares: two providers, the router itself, management, sales department)
2. Approximate load in Mbps and thousands of packets per second (look at how much your network is creating now and take a margin of 4 or even 10 times)
3. If possible, look at the existing router for the number of tcp connections, and also take the margin
4. The number of BGP prefixes (talk to providers, you need Do you want BGP Full View?)
5. With all this, come to two or three local official sellers / integrators for a specification and a commercial offer. It’s better to take it through them, because the price relative to the GPL-price officially announced by the manufacturer can drop significantly.
Don't forget to require the specification to specify the maximum achievable hardware performance and capacity, it is usually described for three different cases: small packets, large packets, and IMIX (a distribution that roughly corresponds to the average subscriber traffic).
By the way, I would also advise you to take a closer look at Juniper.
Computer with two network cards and pfSense.
It will cost more than 10 times cheaper.
Although if you have a budget cut, then you can even 250 tr.
