Here is a project of mine. http://www.internetworkpro.org/wiki/Using_QEMU_with_Olive_to_emulate_Juniper_Routers I have a new patch to release, I just need to test it some more. I am moving away from the pemu nic (which has some serious MTU issues) and going with the official eepro100 nic emulation. I'll try to get a new patch out this weekend. Now if i read your request right, you want to emulate a real Juniper router? A good place to start would be the J series. They are software as are the Cisco routers Dynamips emulates. I would use QEMU as a good start on this (See the PEMU project which is similar for Cisco Pix Firewalls). The M-series would be near impossible. It is built with forwarding done in hardware on specific (read: no public specs) ASICs. This is why none of the Cisco hardware switches or routers are emulated on dynamips either. In short, you can do 90% of what you need for lab and study work with an Olive. With my Qemu patch you can do full routing protocols and even network to a dynamips instance or even PEMU.
