It strikes me as quite a common use case. If there was a platform that
allowed at least 2x10Gig input, and a number of 1Gig ports, that'd be
ideal. The MX80 looks ideal for this situation, but it's just not at
the right price point for the situation - although VPLS would be nice.

I know people like talking about the SRXs to fill this situation, but
it's only a stopgap, it can't scale as well as I'd hope.
