Cisco CRS-1: Reinventing the Router
Overview "Router speeds and feeds will always be critical factors in overall network performance. But to meet the IP industry’s next-generation availability and scalability expectations, advances in pure capacity must join innovative architectural designs that address other business and operational issues, as well. The Cisco CRS-1 core router—the first member of the Cisco Carrier Routing System (CRS) family—is indeed unparalleled in terms of capacity and raw horsepower, able to service millions of customers simultaneously. But at least as important, it raises the industrywide routing bar architecturally by enabling the continuous operation of IP networks. The smart, innovative engineering behind the Cisco CRS-1 moves the IP services community from best-effort data networking to the fault-tolerant, multiple-service networking service providers have long envisioned, with the feature flexibility and capacity they need to sustain the anticipated growth in IP services over the next decade."
