If you're staying Cisco, probably the ASR1000 series, or the ASR9K,
depending on needs.

You probably don't need CSR routers if you're not going to 100Gbps.

We're a service provider, and we have a network full of Cat6509's. We are

is still superb but one of them with 20 peers is starting to groan a bit
and RAM is going to be an issue soon.

What do people use these days? Our backbone needs in the next 2-3 years
are going to be sub-100Gbps.
