Sure - there are lots of options …..

Juniper MX line is personal favourite and one that we use for all of those 
functions (except CGNAT as we don’t do it currently, but the box can do it for 
sure).

“reasonably priced core router” means a lot of different things though :)  For 
some folks this means a budget of $10k and for others it means $1mil 

Also, the licensing of features on certain vendors is something to be aware of 
… for example, I just ordered another router for LNS purposes - after discounts 
etc the router itself “only” cost about $50k but then I need line cards and 
several different licenses.  Linecards add $250k and licenses another $60k or 
so … now that “router” is coming in at about $360k and that’s with pretty 
significant discounts
