[j-nsp] Tunnel Services

[Scott Morris]

An AS-PIC (or ASM) will terminate tunnels as well, but you don't need to
have it.  The tunnel pic (or built in one) serves that function as well.

"The Tunnel Services PIC leverages a comprehensive set of tunneling
technologies to deliver revenue generating IP/MPLS services over any IP
infrastructure, whether owned by the provider or a third party. These
services include Layer 3 2547 MPLS VPNs over GRE, IPSec over GRE, GRE over
IPSec, PIM Sparse Mode multicast, multicast over Layer 3 2547 VPNs, Virtual
Private LAN Service (VPLS), VPLS or Layer 2 VPNs terminated into Layer 3
2547 VPNs, IPv6 over IPv4, logical routers and other revenue generating
services. The Tunnel Services PIC works with all M-series and T-series
platforms to support high bandwidth tunnel services."

HTH,

Scott

Hi List,

 

This might seem like a stupid question but the Juniper docs are fairly vague
on this - is the built-in tunnel PIC in the M7i/M10i RE all that is required
to terminate GRE/IP-in-IP tunnels? Or does one also require an AS PIC?

 

Thanks,

 

Dermot
