What are those possibilities? How can you leverage VM in your router/switch? Do you have access to the high performance NPU? Or some high-performance link to forwarding-plane? If it's just plain old VM in server, why would you want to save 1kUSD on installing compute to the rack and add complexity/risk to your network infrastructure? JunOS, IOS-XR are very fickle already and fail on the darnest things, I'd be very hesitant to put random VM there without extremely compelling justification. -- ++ytti
