[c-nsp] Compare Passport 8600 and Cat 6500

[Dan Lockwood]

Does anyone have any resources out there that compare the Nortel 8600
and the Cat 6500/7600?  I haven't been successful Googling and Nortel's
site is sparse on details.  Among other things I'm looking to
substantiate Nortel's claim of 384MPPS throughput.  Is this a native
capability or do they need something like a DFC on each line card to
pull it off?

Thanks,
Dan
