Not sure if that's too large (and depending on future
requirements, whether the whole 6500/7600 drama will come
back to bite the OP).
I was thinking more, ASR1000 series. Will do wire rate, has
a large enough control plane to handle multiple full tables
to customers, is the natural progression from the 7200-VXR
platform, e.t.c.
side note: we have pushed an NPE-G2 as an edge router, i.e.,
ACL's, uRPF, BGP, IS-IS, BFD, all that good stuff, to
about 950Mbps with a couple of BGP feeds to customers;
granted, CPU hovered about 90%, but no packet loss,
e.t.c.
I'm, in no way, recommending you do this (we tend to
do things a little differently sometimes), but thought
you might like this horror story :-).
Cheers,
Mark.
