Be careful what you ask for... We've seen many issues with the "support" for third party optics, for example we still have ongoing issues with Cisco copper SFPs which show link up despite nothing being plugged in when used in an MX80... It's not as bad as a blatant lock, but if they don't have to "support" it they don't need to "fix" it either. :) The better way to say it is, we aren't going to call you and make you fix it if it's just one broken optic doing something bad, but we still expect you to make every reasonable effort to make your product work correctly with other standards compliant components. -- Richard A Steenbergen <r...@e-gerbil.net> http://www.e-gerbil.net/ras GPG Key ID: 0xF8B12CBC (7535 7F59 8204 ED1F CC1C 53AF 4C41 5ECA F8B1 2CBC) _______________________________________________ juniper-nsp mailing list juniper-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp
