The one pain point I still have with them is software upgrades. If
you're used to downloading an image from CCO, copying it to the
router, changing a boot statement and typing reload, the XR way of
doing things will be a MAJOR education.
Cisco promised this would be easier with IOS XR 5, but obviously not.
Overall, I've been pleased with the ASR9001s, they've been a very
solid box that hasn't required us to do much with them other than let
them sit and quietly move a lot of traffic for us. If you have any
specific questions about them, post to the list, these kinds of
discussions are helpful to everybody.
We use them for peering as well - no major complaints.
My only issue has been when Cisco will release an ASR9001 based on an
x86 CPU. The current models are Freescale P4040 systems, so a little
quicker than the MX80's CPU.
Mark.
