Is anyone using the NCS5508 as the role of a backbone Core / Aggregation =
/ Peering router? I understand these are generally different network =
models but we would be interested in hearing whether anyone is using =
these routers for all three roles. We flattened our network during our =
last refresh and are trying to do more with less (who isn=E2=80=99t =
these days?), so we=E2=80=99re trying to determine whether the NCS5508 =
would fit the bill that=E2=80=99s currently being served by our =
ASR9K=E2=80=99s. =20
We would also be interested in hearing general observations and thoughts =
about the NCS5508 for any role.
Thanks,
