[c-nsp] Cisco routers - comparing new 3845 vs 7206vxr

[Brian Vowell]

We have a 2811 and a 2821 and BOTH of them crash frequently when BGP and 
IPS or IP Inspection are activated.  The 28XX and 38XX only run the 
latest 12.3T releases. 

If you're looking for stability in the network, then choosing the 7206 
is a no-brainer.  The 28XX and 38XX series aren't ready for primetime yet.
