[j-nsp] Tunnel Services

[Joseph Soricelli]

Dermot-

Yes, you can use your M7i for those terminations. But please make sure  
that you actually have an ASM in your router (show chassis hardware).  
Those are a line item for those routers and while most folks purchased  
the bundle packs it is possible that yours is not in that group

In short, the M7i uses a daughter card for this and it's not  
'guaranteed' to have one installed.
