The 6500 product line has roadmap out to 2020 and beyond.
Keep in mind that the ASR platforms support much larger route tables than
the 6500.  The 6500 is probably not going to be viable for full routing tables
in two years giving the de-aggregation expected in the IPv4 space.

Based on your requirements, you may want an ASR 1006 with ESP 40.
The maintenance on an ASR 1k will be lower than the GSR.
You don't mention what cards you have in the GSR.
Some of them may not be compatible with the XR code.

I would recommend against new 7600 deployments since the platform seems to be lacking a roadmap.  The ASR 9K is the probable replacement for the 7600.

Not sure if anyone pointed this out yet sorry for the late reply but you don't need IOS XR to do what you're proposing with a GSR 12410.

Thanks,

Is there a way to make a 12410 into a XR ??

Or would it be better to go down he 7600 route.

Need to Route 1GigE and a few 10GigE interfaces between POP sites.
Full BGP v4 and v6

Thanks
