Alex: I believe that I am one of the ISPs that Chris is referring to (he helped me out a lot with my IOS to JunOS learning curve). We ran a Cisco only network for close to 12 years and as you can imagine I was fairly apprehensive about switching to Juniper. We switched 3 months ago and so far I can tell you that it was absolutely the correct choice.
At this point we are only running a single J4350 (although we plan to put in a second one and use VRRP shortly). We take 3 full BGP feeds and have over 60 other BGP peers by way of TorIX ( www.torix.net ) as well as a few downstream BGP customers. We are using OSPF as well. Our total traffic through the box is ~80 Meg and the CPU is currently 12.24 %according to the TOTALLY AWESOME web interface. We did upgrade the RAM from 512 Meg to 1 Gig (using readily available aftermarket RAM, sorry Chris). Not that we have had a problem (because we haven't) but I would strongly recommend picking up a spare power supply to keep on-hand "just in case" Regards, Bill ----- Original Message ----- From: "Chris Kawchuk" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Alex Campbell" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: <juniper-nsp@puck.nether.net> Sent: Friday, May 11, 2007 12:56 PM Subject: Re: [j-nsp] J-series > Alex, > > I have some Canadian ISP service providers using J4350's and J6350's for > exactly this application.
