I find that the 9901 being entry level is quite high. There is the 120Gbps license but the device itself is quite heavy and large and the power consumption more than the 9001. I think the success of the ASR920 shows that small size and low power usage are highly valued. I would love to see a smaller option - just a single NPU, maybe 1RU, and half the power usage. This would give a much more fitting entry level model and allow users to push out the ASR99xx 64bit xr model to smaller sites where the ASR9901 is just too big . NCS540 is your XR answer then, as a successor of ASR920, but it's Broadcom inside. Alternatively MX204. adam _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
