C3850-12XS as MPLS P switch

Hello,

 

I've got a question related to the C3850-12XS, now that these devices have MPLS support I was thinking about building a small MPLS core (4x P routers connected at 10GE) using these devices.

 

They seem to fit, would only be used as MPLS P (LSR) devices not PE, as such the routing table would be quite small (probably less than 100 routes), wouldn't participate on BGP only single area OSPF.

 

This is for a small project, traffic stats are going to be small as well (we don't expect going above 20 Gbps in a single direction in the next 2 years at least).

 

So, the question is, has anyone tried this? or is doing this on a production environment? how stable has it been for you? we mainly consider the model due to it having the features we need for a 10GE P core device at the scale we work with a good pricing.
