bgp

We have two sites that each have an internet connection and have a dedicated dark fibre between them. Each site has it's own IP space and we have an AS number. We're looking to be resilient to failure of the internet connection to either site and so need to buy a pair of approriate routers.

Requirements are:

Able to run 2 bgp sessions (one with the ISP, one with the other site router)
Option to take a full table from the upstream ISPs would be nice.
Able to provide HA gateways on the LAN side (e.g. 192.168.0.254 will automatically migrate if it's host router lost power)
A dedicated device rather than a server running Linux / BSD
Not crazy expensive.

Any help / advice much appreciated.
