ASR 903 runs IOS XE and ASR901 runs classical IOS.
ASR 901 Scale:
IPv4 Routes - 12K
BGP peers - 100
Number of VRF - 128
IPv6 support is in roadmap for August timeframe.

ASR 903 is capable of line rate performance. It does not support full
internet routing table.

Not real world, but according to the information I got from Cisco RSP1A
can hold 12k ipv4 routes or 6k ipv6 ones, and RSP1B - 32k ipv4 and 16k
ipv6, so nowhere near what's required for full table. I don't have the
numbers for ASR901, but that's mainly a L2 VPN device, so I'd expect
them to be even lower.

kind regards
