[c-nsp] Cisco ASR 9K Vs 7600

[Pavel Skovajsa]

On a lighter note,
Not sure why you want to aproach the problem logically and from
technology viewpoint, the people you are going to speak to are not
going to understand your argumentation anyway.... :)

I suggest you use some slides from this link I found on google
(http://www.slideshare.net/CiscoSP360/virtual-viral-visual-cisco-asr-9000-launch-strategy).

> Would You consider an ASR 9K as a reasonable (money and tech-wise) upgrade to Cat7600? I understand that ASR9K scales way better than c7600, and there should be lots of other reasons why ASR9K would be more appropriate for SP core network... but I just can not gather enough arguments to initiate an upgrade project so far. Box will be used as SP backbone router, MPLS-P functionality, aggregating lots of 10G feeds of data/voice/video (yes, VidMon should help here)

If anybody has faced such choice at some point - it would be great if You could share your pros/cons and if its not a secret - your conclusion as well - is ASR9K worth a shot and if yes/no - why?
