We have been using the 7280SR-48C6 for 2.5 years now. Just after Arista announced the full table BGP routing. Looking at the price / port there is nothing near Arista. We also use Cisco ASR1K and Juniper MX204 but these have far less capacity. When we first started, there were quite a few features missing but over the past 2 year they have really been catching up. I was very happy when they added MSS clamping at the end of last year. The new version 7280R2K should be able to handle 2M routes. On Tue, Mar 5, 2019 at 9:31 PM <nanog () jack fr eu org> wrote:

My big gripes with the 5501 are that, due to its architecture, if you want to do uRPF, you chop your route scale in half, even on the 5501-SE. 5501 also has no supported configuration where you have both first hop redundancy and physical path redundancy, because you can't do both VRRP (its only redundant first hop option) and BVI's, can't do MC-LAG, can't do vPC, so you need switches in addition to the 5501's if that's the goal..David
