Let's all also remember the TCAM limitations on the 7600/Sup2T platform. With the BGP table growing like it is, you'll need to carve up IPv4/IPv6 TCAM allocation and could likely run out in the not-so-distant future. IMHO, unless something amazing happens for the 7600/Supervisor platform, this thing is dead as a DFZ BGP router and people should be looking elsewhere moving forward. Both ASR lines (1k/9k) offer much better "router" capabilities and growth paths. The 6500/7600 platform has had a helluva run, but I believe its time has passed.
