Hi,

"Hardware+Software".  My current beef is Cisco IOS XR on ASR9001, which
has hardware capable of doing about anything, and software that missed that
particular call...

(Of course there's 6500/Sup720, which has hardware not capable of doing
any EH header filtering, but that is *old* stuff and not particularily
relevant here)
