[j-nsp] Upgrade from M10i?

[Phil Palanchi]

We're in the same 10G boat as Ken and Mark so I'm really appreciating all
the contributions to this thread!  Actually have a meeting next week with
our Juniper account to discuss 10G platforms so this topic is very timely.

We have 3 m10i's in our extranet with a couple of OC12 PICs, AS-PICs. IPv4/
someday IPv6, Multicast.  

Thanks,
Phil

i'm have approximately the same requirements as Mark and considering the
MX480 vs M120 choice, so i very much appreciate the comments folks have made
about the MX series. we have an M120 and are happy with it, but there is a
substantial price difference between the MX480 and M120, and we have no need
for non-ethernet interfaces.

Mark did not mention multicast explicitly; we need this router to do
IPv4/IPv6 multicast. has anyone got any experience with multicast on the MX
series?

thanks,
ken

p.s.: it's worth noting that adding "tunnel PIC capability" to an MX, in
order to have it act as an RP, uses a full slot in the chassis.
