Which is usually not the case. The "services" modules router vendors use
to implement LSN features are usable for other services as well. And the
interface linecards which will become free are reusable, too, if not
obsolete technology by the date they become available.

As soon as you talk about "multiple 10G of traffic" per LSN, you're out
of the "my nice linux box" legue anyway.

Best regards,
Daniel
