[f-nsp] Looking to confirm if Brocade MLX/XMR can do CGNAT/LSN or Equivalent?

To the best of my understanding the NetIron Platforms CER, MLX, XMR, MLXe
 will meet most of your requirements depending on the specifics chosen, but
the code does not have these features:

DHCPv4/DHCPv6+RA
CGNAT or Equivalent

It does have the DHCP v4/v6 Relay Agents, and supports Prefix Delegation
route insertion. But doesn't run a DHCP server.

If you want CGNAT features you need to look at the ServerIron platform.
