With this low requirements you could think about a csr1000v (virtual gateway combined with a rackmount x86 appliance. This setup split your software and hardware dependency and help to optimize your lifecyle. Most import<br clear="none">
it is much easier to get x86 hardware than network appliances today.<br clear="none">
