Given that it can only do routing if you feed it a L3 license, it definitely
looks switchy to me :-)
OTOH, the boundaries are truly floating today - what is a 6500/sup720,
what is an ASR9000? I'd call the first one a switch, and the second one
a router, even if the ASR9000 can do more ethernet switching tricks than
the 6500...
The traditional way to decide is "price". And that definitely makes the
ASR920 a switch, and the ASR9000 a router :-)
