Hi, the search turned up nada so I figured I would quiz the group on their past experiences with Cisco's CSPs. Cisco is pushing them hard on us and they appear interesting enough but, without having got my hands on one yet, it is hard to be anything but skeptical.
The tl;dr of what they are, they are a consolidated device that basically lets you virtualize a bunch of platforms. You have a remote site and want a router and ASA, place a single CSP box and run both virtually. You are supposed to be able to run other virtualized options on it so you could throw a server of your choice on it as well.
The CSP was also pitched as part of their Agile Exchange SDN offering.
So, stay away, proceed cautiously, or, SPEND SPEND SPEND?
TIA!
