An Instructor Mikrotik, said Routerboards not support BGP and Mikrotik FULL. Reported that this task would be better for Linux. I wondered to friends if someone uses FULL BGP with Mikrotik and whether they are satisfied.
I intend to participate in training MTCINE
Well this statement is not true. It would be interesting to see who said that.
We use BGP between our Quagga/Zebra boxes and mikrotiks.The functionality from what I can tell , almost exactly the same.I always find basic debugging via winbox or web interface on the mikrotik a little easier than tailing and catting through billions of log files though.
MikroTik have FULL support to BGP, we have here sections with Quagga and Cisco connected with our MikroTik border routes ( 2 RB1100AHx2) and all with FULL Routing tables and multiples sections, with our link provider, HE and cymru and no problems…

I have in a production environment two Virtual Machine with Mikrotik RouterOS license who recive Full Internet Routing table from our two peer/provider via BGP4 and everything works fine.
My friend have an infrastructure olso connected to two european Internet Exchange Point and its hw/sw is Mikrotik based.

We have seven BGP peers to other ISP’s and have never had any trouble with interoperability.
I as well as setup an x86 box to do a full BGP with two different ISP’s and the process was very straight forward. It is also nice being able to talk to guy networking guys that actually know whats up at your ISP’s too. 
Hi..
MikroTik RoS is really so powerfull and have full capability to operate on enterprise network…
Please see my presentation at Dubai MUM http://mum.mikrotik.com/presentations/AE12/ali.pdf
Its present capability of RoS at enterprise
Hope its will be use full for all..!!

Your instructor is partially correct. Yes, a routerboard with the proper memory supports full BGP. However, a basic entry-level RB does not have the memory to store all of the routes.
thank you all for supporting, rather added to my knowledge. I intend to make this year the course MTCINE.
Ali, can you share the slide of the other your presentation at the mum: VLANs over VPLS/MPLS ?
I have tryed to write you an email but I recive back a mail server error: “Host or domain name not found. Name service error for
