[c-nsp] cisco 7507 vs ssg 550

[Arie Vayner (avayner)]

Faisal,

Why don't you take a look at a 7200/NPE-G2 (or even a 7201, which is a
1RU version of it).

The advantage of changing to this kind of device is that it would be a
natural upgrade from 7500 (which is a very old model...). All the
configs should most likely transfer as a simple copy paste.

Hi,
We have a cisco 7507 router for our wan and are thinking of replacing it
with juniper ssg 550. Currently we have 1 GEIP interface on the lan side
of 7507 and 1 POS(STM/OC3) interface on the wan side. We have a few IP
IP tunnels established and are running BGP over the wan and OSPF on the
lan side. We also have the need of using PBRs. The main reason behind
this change is that we are going to outgrow our STM capacity and need to
upgrade to higher bandwidth on the wan side. hence similarly we will
need to have a better option on the lan side instead of GEIP due to the
limitation of 200mbps aggregate throughput on it.
 
Thanks in advance for your suggestions
 
regards
Famz
