The EX8200 Virtual-Chassis w/ a couple of the XRE200's does well. The
XRE's act as the control plane and the 8200's end up just being
linecards. It's a bit hack-ish IMHO w/ a EX2200 switch acting as the
glue between each XRE and the 8200.
We've run 11.2 - 11.4 and pleased w/ the stability. Our VC is split
between two buildings a few SM fiber pairs acting as the VC connections
between. We've dozens of aggregation switches (EX4500's & EX4200's)
connected w/ LACP to each and are very pleased.

How Virtual-Chassis on Juniper EX8200 is different than Catalyst 6500
(Sup2T) VSS ?
Are both have shared control-plane ?
How about stability of Virtual-Chassis and VSS on latest software releases ?
I would like to implement core layer using EX8200 or Cat6500 (two core
switches).
Each core device will have only redundant power-supply. Line cards, CPU etc
will be non-redundant. Redundancy will be archived using two boxes.
Access-Layer switch will be connected to both core devices using 1GE or
10GE links and aggregated into single PortChannel (LACP).
Access devices will be Cat2960XR (Cisco) or EX3300 (Juniper).
