Thanks for the reply
Hey... sorry I didn't see your other question.
The difference is the addition of security features which allow VPN tunnels, etc. For what you're looking for, it's not something that you need.
Good luck with your deployment!!

It depends on what you want to do with BGP. You can't just pick any router that supports BGP if you want to import a full internet routing table, for example. BGP is resource-intensive.

Thanks for the response. Hello Craig, I do understand the resource part, we are just advertising our subnet on two carriers for load balancing and redundancy via ebgp nothing more. We are not going import any other routes. I believe a small router should do the job. Correct me if I am wrong

I just noticed that I did not close my oldest question properly. Thank you all for your support

1. Cisco CISCO2911-SEC/K9 2911 Security Bundle with sec License Pak
2. Cisco CISCO2911/K9 2911 2900 Series Integrated Services Router
What's the difference between the two? I believe first one with some security services and second one without security license? Is that all the difference or should I be careful while choosing one ?
