I agree. Caveat Emptor. 

I would understand the limitation if I was using some unusual feature or using 
them in some unusual way. However, the marketing literature for the RSP720 
mentions supporting hardware-assisted NAT, and netflow collection. These are 
major features, and one of the advantages of using a hardware router/switch 
rather than a software one (which is important in the financial realm, since 
market data by nature is bursty). A simple notice that netflow data collection 
and NAT cannot be used on the same interface should be mentioned in that 
literature since it cannot work under any configuration on the same interface.
