The ASR1000 takes over from the 7200, where LAC and LNS 
functionality is very mature.

The ASR9000 is implementing the next wave of Broadband 
technologies, and I can see why LNS features would be 
foregone on next-generation BNG devices.

The ASR1000 is a very capable platform, and if you wanted to 
migrate to more modern BNG features in the future, it can 
also play at the same level as the ASR9000, the only 
difference being scale (i.e., if you want to move to DHCP 
for subscriber management).
