VS-S720-10G-3CXL and WS-SUP720-3BXL will do 1m IPv4 routes. I think
you'll find 500k is the limit for IPv6 routing table.<br>

you want switching and routing. If you want 10GbE ports then
Nexus should also be on your review list too.<o:p></o:p></p>

am after some powerful routers (with possible
switching) that can hold multiple IPv4/IPv6 tables
and forward say ~200 Gbps of throughput preferably
all in hardware. This will be pure BGP/OSPF
calculations for next hops, route convergence and
forwarding. I know MLX ports can act as switching
ports so that will mean I don't need a separate
switching layer which is a bonus. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
