The following information is Cisco router performance in what I term as Marketing numbers. What they provide is a guide as to the relative performance of one Cisco router to another. This helps when designing a network or specifying a router for a particular job. This information should help to make selecting a router a little easier.  This information was obtained from various marketing presentations made by Cisco to their customers.
