[AusNOG] Cisco ASR 1K as a low-end LNS

[Skeeve Stevens]

Hey all,

I am looking at using some ASR1k's for some low-end LNS's.... but not used
the 1K before.

I presume buying refurb ASR1002's hardware means you can just buy the
licences?

Anyone got any thoughts/advice on the suitability of the ASR1K as an LNS -
I am thinking maybe 1000 or so NBN related speeds... seems like the
throughput will be fine for those sorts of numbers.

Looks like the BB licensing is RTU (500 users) then 4K users... but much
than what I need... annoying. Pricing isn't too bad though.

Any comments on licensing would be helpful and if you need anything apart
from the advanced IOS and the RTU.

Any thoughts on or off-list would be welcome.
