Currently have T1 aggregation on some Cisco 7206VXR routers. Core switches and data center gateways on a couple of Cisco 6509's. Looking for a model that could collapse both functions into just two devices, one being for hardware redundancy. Any recommendations on a good L3 switch that is also a good T1 aggregation device? Anyone have any experience with the newer Cisco stuff like the ASR 1000/7600/CRS-1?
Forgive the dumb question, but what's wrong with using a 6509 as a T1 aggregation device? Port density not cost-effective? I've seen it used that way on a number of occasions with cheap M13 muxes and DS3 interfaces.
