I've got a Cisco 7201 with about 500 L2TPv2 tunnels, and I suspect
that UUFB (unknown unicast flooding) is resulting in spiking (I put an
ACL on to kill broadcast traffic, so I'm sure that's not related).
I've googled and don't see anything for the 7201, just the 7600
series.  :/

i.e. 
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/routers/7600/ios/12.2SR/configuration/guide/blocking.html

Anyone have any suggestions on (something cheap) that I can put in
front of this box to spare it from (what I suspect) is a gateway that
unicast floods when a MAC address has aged?

To add to my challenges, I'm in Brazil and importing gear is insanely
effing difficult.  :/

interfaces on the LAN side, and ideally something with multi zoning so I can 
keep LAN side networks separate from each without ridiculous firewall rules.  
Meaning build a zone for Customer network 1 and it displays separately 
(ease of management and firewall config hopefully).  I need a minimum of 10 
zones on LAN side (/29 or /30), and NAT support for LAN to WAN (to dedicate 
all outbound connections to a single IP from a specific zone), ideally 
something extremely scalable (100-200 zones).  And here
 is the super fun part!  I need something that is going to be web managed 
primarily as minions will be doing most of the day to day maintenance, or very 
simple CLI config.  Willing to pay for something if need be, but looking for 
something that can easily handly 50-100mbit of throughput.

 Any Ideas?

 Can anyone enlighten me on the pros and cons of MX 80 platform

There's been quite a bit of discussion about the MX80 on the
juniper-nsp list, and I recommend asking on that list instead
(if you don't find what you already need in the list archives).

As a general rule, people are more likely to be able to help you
if you specify *what* you might want to use the MX80 for.

Pros - small footprint, cost, feature rich
Cons - no redundancy (other than power), 1/3rd the processor power

I'd consult the list archive, since theres a couple recent and fairly lengthy
