[j-nsp] Upgrade from M10i?

[Bjørn Tore Paulen]

We are doing multicast on MX480 platform. It works .. Somehow.  Has been a
*lot* of bugs on the releases prior to 9.2R3, some of them quite severe. The
ones we have been bitten by were typically regarding IRB and IGMP
capability. Still we see some strange behaviour. We are running mc in vrf.

We have replaced >1 REs already due to hardware problems. We have to replace
32 PSUs because of a hardware issue.

Most of the issues we have seen have been resolved. 

My gut feeling is that we went for this a bit too early. But when it works,
it's a dream of a box.

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.
