Viptela in network have a lot router's function and also is used as edge router connected to ISP. It looks like Viptela has very similar function with regular router. And router such as ASR1K is used as edge router connected to ISP and it also has same function as Viptela. I wonder due to what function of Viptela we use Viptela instead of ASR1K? Thank you

Viptela's difference with router

Switch

A router is a networking device that forwards data packets between computer networks. Routers perform the "traffic directing" functions on the Internet. The most familiar type of routers are home and small office cable or DSL routers that simply pass data, such as web pages, email, IM, and videos between computers and the Internet. More sophisticated routers, such as enterprise routers, connect large business or ISP networks up to the powerful core routers that forward data at high speed along the optical fiber lines of the Internet backbone. Though routers are typically dedicated hardware devices, use of software-based routers has grown increasingly common.
