[nsp] PXF / NSE-1 experiences?

[Simon Hamilton-Wilkes]

Yes, I'm using several NPE-G1's.  IOS support has been the only issue.

I've had more luck with 12.2(15)B than with 12.2(14)S.  Next one I deploy
I will be trying 12.2(14)S1.

We're using the GE I/O board to give 4 X GE's directly on the NPE.

	I participated in the NPE-G1 beta program.  Nice board.
Worked quite well for us, the only issue we had initally was
that it was only supported on 12.2(4)B.

	It's supported in 12.2(14)S and S1.

	It can do about 2xGE linerate depending on your
packet size which is a lot better than the npe-300/400 as well
as having built-in 3x 10/100/1000 ports.

	Once 12.2S catches up with 12.0S featurewise it'll be
an even more attractive platform for people.
