It can certainly perform the necessary label swapping (with a suitable Sup720), and other people have reported that it works well as a P router. If your needs are met by a 7609 as P router, it doesn't really matter if Cisco would like you to buy a more expensive box :-) > Plus it would be unfair to compare price and performance of 7600 to an M320 > and Juniper would never put an M7i or M10 as P, so its all about Positioning > not just 'pure technical' judgement. Both are important. An M7i might work just fine as a P router depending on your requirements - but it obviously wouldn't do the job if you need a highly redundant box with multiple 10Gig interfaces.
