Note that w/N7K, you get usable NetFlow, per-interface uRPF configuration, and 
less ACL constraints, all of which are extremely useful.  

If customers insist on placing stateful firewall chokepoints and such in front 
of their servers, 6500s can be used as service switches.  They can handle 
IPSEC, as well.

So, this simply leaves MPLS termination as the primary issue, does it not?  If 
this is the case, then placing an MPLS-capable box at the DC distribution 
gateway level takes care of this, yes?
