URGENT: MPLS P/ PE support on 7600/Sup720-BXL and 3750 Metro switch

[marcpere]

I'm need to design a MPLS network for a Cable Operator.

They will start small with some Cisco CMTS doing MPLS-PE and needing only two devices to aggregate these PE and delivering Services (Internet connection, VoD, ...) , so they will need to work has P/PE.

For that I want to know if it's possible to:

1 - Use 3750 Metro and 7600/Sup720-BXL as P and PE

2 - Who many customers (L2VPN/VLANs and/or L3VPN/VRF) can they support?

Searching in CCO I found these values/features but, need URGENT to check:

1 - sup720-bxl supports P and PE but 3750 only PE?

2 - 3750 supports 1024 VLANs and 8,192 MPLS labels but no values on L3VPN/VRF?

SUP720 supports more than 1000 VRF?

Really need urgent HELP on this design/capabilities for these two devices.

Thanks in advance,

yes.3750 supports PE only.sup7203BXL can support 1024 vrfs and 700 routes per vrf.

One more question since has I suspected I can't use 3750, do you have numbers (l2VPN and L3VPN) for 7200?

before you even get anywhere close to the numbers of L2/L3 on a 7200 I would seriously consider asking what throughput you can get through a 7200 with MPLS, QOS, L3vpns and L2vpns configured. I have done this testing already but dont think it is appropriate to quote the figures publically.
