It is usable, we have taken it even a step forward:

- virtualized RR
- add-path
- ORR
- IGP topology to RR via BGP-LS so we don't have to extend ISIS to VMs (there are some issues with SR-IOV)

That sounds pretty exciting and its good to see traditional router vendors (embedded) leading the way on features. I don't exactly understand how add-path plus ORR works, I figured you'd only use one or the other, but that just shows you I haven't been up on this in a while.
