[j-nsp] Experience with J series

[Patrik Olsson]

I am running J2320s high mem version as BGP gateway with ACLs and OSPF
towards other stuff on the inside. My company is a Webhotel. I have a
full feed coming down from my ISP.

I have about 10 Mbps concurrent traffic all the time and a couple of
thousand concurrent sessions.

I NEVER had a problem with my routers :-)

Cheers
Patrik
