[c-nsp] Recommendation for Cisco router with Full BGP Route

Dear all,

Looks like the requirements is not complete :

10g interface : ~ 5 ports.

Throughput : ~ 20 - 50Gbps if possible.

Budget : the boss did not mention budget yet. I need to propose the options
available then select the cheapest which meets the requirements.

Our concern more toward CPU utilization when handling bgp. Cpu will
constantly high, long before the throughput hit 10G.

Thx.
