[j-nsp] J2320 as BGP router

[Chris Kawchuk]

As stated before, The "Advanced BGP Licence" is for Route-Reflector capability.

The system does full i/eBGP out-of-the-box (normal JunOS).

Also look at the SRX series - which are basically "pumped up J's" running the virtually same code. (and yes, you can kick an SRX into "packet mode")
