OSPF v2 and v3, IS-IS, EIGRP, BGP and full table isn't a problem. VRFs are there. MPLS is in development at the moment. HSRP, VRRP, GLBP with object tracking. Unicast and Multicast. IPv4 and IPv6. Modular QoS. Netflow. Don't think it's got NAT yet. And it's all modular (and properly so) which is nice. Real ISSU etc is there too. Plus multi-chassis etherchannel helps get rid of STP which can't be a bad thing :-)</div><div><br></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" face="Arial">See </font><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px; -webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 2px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 2px; "><font class="Apple-style-span" face="Arial"><a href="http://tinyurl.com/djzo9s">http://tinyurl.com/djzo9s</a></font></span></div><div><br></div><div>There is an amazing large number of people working on the software so I'd expect feature parity for the important features to be sooner than you'd probably expect.
