RE: VPLS

I have to admit I find this pretty comical now. It is funny that I can go
get a Juniper SRX100 router which is the lowest end branch router you can
buy from Juniper, I am assuming it is comparable to the 800 series routers
and I can get VPLS support on this but with a higher end service router like
the 7200 series router support is not provided. Looks like a pretty big
snafu by Cisco in my opinion. I am glad for this question as I at least
know what I can do now to implement some testing I wanted to do for a
customer as I am not going to be buying a 7600 any time soon, little out of
my price range.

The parser may take it, but IOS on 7200 doesn't have forwarding code,
only control-plane. There are no current plans to move the forwarding
code to 7200 codebase.
