Agreed. Its particularly curious on the ISR, since its still a software-based platform and not positioned for heavy IGP/EGP workloads. SMP for NX-OS/XE/XR where its "just" the control-plane is a lot easier than having to go near forwarding. > One of the reason they've stepped away from IOS for the Nexus/ASR platforms. Yes, unfortunately each BU keeps re-using this excuse to go their own way. Hearing this repeatedly and re-reading the early press interviews on ION is sobering. _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list cisco-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
