In the absence of the SRX110 and SRX220, we’ve moved to the SRX300. The standard 200M licensed model is at a price that just about works for us for customers who are in the market for an Ethernet circuit (Fibre, EFM, EoFTTC/GEA). Where we need to go up to 1G, the cost for the upgrade license isn’t as eye-watering as it originally looked. And the presence of two SFP ports on the SRX300 saves the cost of PIM cards.
For ADSL/FTTC based circuits, we’re just using Draytek 2860 - for their reliability, not really for the features (we switch off everything except DHCP for MPLS/L3VPN customers). Obviously this leaves ADSL/FTTC capability on the Juniper. These are rare cases for us, because we don’t have many customers who are taking Ethernet-based circuits with ADSL/FTTC backup. But where that does happen, we use the Draytek 130 ADSL/VDSL modem with PPPoE passthrough with the SRX300. > On 1 Aug 2017, at 16:56, Dan Kitchen <dkitc...@razorblue.com> wrote: > > Hi All, > > I’m looking to see what others are using as CE/CPE for entry level Ethernet > services at the moment. > > We’ve been a Juniper house for many years and our stock of legacy SRX’s is > running low.
