Looks like this is the difference between the bundles and the gray boxes like MX80-5G vs MX5 and so on. For bundles (which are about to leave the price-list till the end of the year) the port restrictions are honor-based, and it looks like (of course, there is no official approval) this is going to be kept on. For MX5/10/40 Juniper is promising to enforce it in 11.4/12.1 or something, I forgot. _______________________________________________ juniper-nsp mailing list juniper-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp
