Hi, Has anyone ran a rather large amount of SLA probes from a router who can comment on the cpu performance characteristics on how it scaled for your particular platform?
Specifically looking to see if its feasible to expect a router to be able to go upwards of 500+ simultaneous monitors(looking at a total of about 10-15k pps of udp-jitter probes in total). Also any thoughts on the best platform for the task? the 7201/ASR1002-F seem like a possible good fit and would like to aim for something in its category - price on the lowerish side of the scale, rack space used minimal, large cpu, mpls-te capable, can accept SFP optics. Ultimately the cheapest box for the task is what i'm after, those devices may be an overkill and if I can get away with a 3800 ISR or less then even better. Before anyone says that I should look at another vendor/solution, this is already being done in the background. I am purely after what a Cisco router can offer in this regards, i've never come across more than about 20 sla probes on a router before so am interested to hear the results.
