Overall Satisfaction with Cisco Catalyst 8000 Edge Platforms

In my organization, I continuously demo how the Cisco Catalyst 8000 Edge Platforms' virtual router can deploy easily on our PS451 Server line with multiple Type 1 Hypervisors.

Pros

  • Dmvpn
  • VRF
  • IPSec
  • Dynamic Routing.

Cons

  • CPU overhead.
  • Decreased our equipment BOM
  • Alleviated stress on power budgets
  • Improved performance
I gave Cisco Catalyst 8000 Edge Platforms this usability rating because It’s a Cisco IOS-XE appliance in a virtual instance. Enough said.
For its function and resource requirements, it’s at the top of the list
