==> I never said that, we use them both. As stated before by Chris Jones,
L-SYS is a higher a higher level of abstraction and multitenancy that
allows to create virtual boxes with dedicated ressources, etc. You can
always create multiple VRs inside L-SYS as much as you need. These are two
very different things.

course.

==> Not true at all. Exception made for some specific limitations, you keep
the exact some set of features and all. Ressources are just split over the
multiple L-SYS plus you get seperte management.

Re: [j-nsp] SRX firewall virtualization

2015-10-02 Thread james list
Hi Youssef
so you use LSYS since quite time, is there a reason why you have decided
for that and not for VR ?

LSYS as far as I understand is limited to 32, right ?

Which is the throughput you get among LSYS ?


As far as I see now the only benefit of LSYS against VR is the separate
management... nothing more...
Less scalability, less features, etc...

Keep it strictly as a L3 device.  Eliminate as much L2 as possible

[j-nsp] convert config from m120 to mx480

2015-10-02 Thread David B Funk

We have a venerable m120 that's being used as an edge router in our
department on campus. We've recently acquired an mx480 as a replacement.

I'm trying to decide the best way to port the m120 config to the mx480;
Either a pretty much straight up port (strictly a L3 device) or try
to convert it to a L2/L3 config that can utilize some of the switching
features of the mx480.

Anybody have suggestions or advice for this scenario?

Thanks,
Dave

Agree completely. Layer-2 should be kept as close to the access edge as
possible and not span anything that could be done via Layer-3.

We replaced a pair of M120s at our border with MX480s a little over a year 
ago.  Large chunks of the config will port over cleanly, but there are 
some gotchas:


1. slot/card/interface naming and numbering might be different, depending
on the type of cards you have and how things are physically laid out.
2. The sampling configuration is completely different going from the M 
series to the MX series.  This can also change on the MX platform, 
depending on which version of code you're running.
3. There are some licensing differences to take into account as well, if 
this hasn't been done already.


The preparation for the cutover took a long time, but the actual cut was 
relatively painless, other than a sampling bug we triggered in the version 
of code that we were recommended to use at that time (12.3R6.6 I think - 
we have since upgraded).

afaik the re2000 was a single core pentium-m the re4x1800 is a bit more

I have heard that this is planned for Junos 15.

Re: [j-nsp] Multi Core on JUNOS?

2015-10-02 Thread Olivier Benghozi
I have heard that:
1) forget it about PowerPC CPUs (MX 80/104).
2) JunOS 15.1 uses a more recent FreeBSD 10 base (as said in the doc) with SMP 
activated; but I guess that as long as rpd won't be recoded accordingly, it 
won't be any faster.

[j-nsp] SRX firewall virtualization

2015-10-02 Thread james list
Dear experts,

I’d like to know your opinion about firewall virtualization inside SRX
boxes (high-end).


As far as I understand there are a couple of way: Logical Systems (LSys)
and Virtual routers (VR).



From your point of view:


1)  Which are the main differences among Lsys and VR ?

2)  Which are pro and cons of LSys and VR ?

3)  If I need to put in communication two LSys in the same box which is
the maximum throughtput I can get ? Should I use lt- interface ?

4)  If I need to put in communication two VR  in the same boz which is
the maximum throughtput I can get ? Should I use import/export ?



If  inside the feedbacks you can provide any reference URL it will be
appreciated.



Cheers

James

Re: [j-nsp] Multi Core on JUNOS?

I thought I saw a roadmap blurb about multi-core RPD in 16.x.  I think its a 
considerable amount of work.
