I guess one of the big differences for choosing MX240 over MX80 would be the Dual RE capability on the MX240. I have been told by our SE that the MX80 will be able to be clustered like the SRX style cluster in the future. ___ juniper-nsp mailing list

[j-nsp] EX4200 questions

2010-05-14 Thread Bernhard Schmidt
Hi, we are a small ISP with a Cisco-only core at the moment, consisting of two 6500 series and a couple of Cat2960G aggregation switches. We are looking into deploying to a small IX in the area, which is at the same location as two of our upstreams. So we are going to throw a second fiber to the

It sounds like the EX4200 would be a fit for you if you're only doing l2, as you mentioned it doesn't have a big FIB for a large amount of routes.. You said that 16k routes would suffice for you, so perhaps you are doing L3 but you're not importing full route feeds in this network area. I somehow

The bug situation is getting better though, I think... We have EX-4200s in our environment and aside from an earlier aggregated-ethernet bug and a hardware issue, they have been rock-solid. In our environment they are L2 Q-in-Q only, no routing. We have MPLS licenses for the units in our

Hi, We also choose the Ex4200 as a backhaul solution, using RSVP based CCC's. On top of that we strip off the outer vlan at the far end port, and push a new and unique outer vlan tag on the connection towards our Mx240's. So it runs as a layer 2 PE, with no problems so far. I think the

We currently have some EX4200 deployed in some VC and non VC setups - really working great for our needs. We are running them pure layer2 currently although deploying them layer3 (OSPF) at customer site currently as well in VC setup. No issues encountered at all (probably because we're running

Will be rolling a EX4200 non-vc into production as a customer agg router next week. Yes the dual host-swap PS, the hot swap fan tray, uplink module (mine will be 4X1GE with LX media). I'm quite happy with these boxes. I will be rolling more 4200's /w VC into production this summer. -b
