We are studying it:
* J Series or SRX Series devices do not support aggregated Ethernet
interfaces. Therefore, aggregated Ethernet interfaces between CE
devices and PE routers are not supported for VPLS routing
instances on J Series or SRX Series devices.
* VPLS routing instances on J Series or SRX Series devices use BGP
to send signals to other PE routers. LDP signaling is not supported.
* VPLS multihoming, which allows connecting a CE device to multiple
PE routers to provide redundant connectivity, is not supported on
J Series or SRX Series devices.
* J Series or SRX Series devices do not support BGP mesh groups.
* J Series or SRX Series devices support only the following
encapsulation types on VPLS interfaces that face CE devices:
extended VLAN VPLS, Ethernet VPLS, and VLAN VPLS. Ethernet VPLS
over ATM LLC encapsulation is not supported.
* Virtual ports are generated dynamically on a Tunnel Services PIC
on some Juniper Networks routing platforms. J Series or SRX Series
devices do not support Tunnel Services modules or virtual ports.
* The VPLS implementation on J Series or SRX Series devices does not
support dual-tagged frames. Therefore, VLAN rewrite operations are
not supported on dual-tagged frames. VLAN rewrite operations such
as pop-pop, pop-swap, push-push, swap-push, and swap-swap, which
are supported on M Series and T Series routing platforms, are not
supported on J Series or SRX Series devices.
* Firewall filters for VPLS are not supported.
BGP Signaling must be a big limitation, because of address space of this
boxes.
