I mean virtualization of the hardware in terms of running different router/switch/server instances/VMs/ on the same platform. Is this desirable?

So you mean dump the VLAN model and give each service its own switch?

Or do you mean use one server but give each service its own VM? Or

Wouldn't that take us back into the digital stone age :-)?
