[j-nsp] MX80 Opinions

[Doug Hanks]

Daniel,

I have nothing but good things to say about the MX80.  It's based on the Trio chipset which means that the data plane is all ASIC based.  I use it personally for creating complex logical topologies using the logical-systems feature.  The MX80 is more than enough to meet your requirements below.  The only downside I can think of is that it doesn't have dual routing engines.  If that's a requirement you have to move up to the MX240 and above.

Thank you,

Hello all,

Could I get some of your opinions about the MX80 platform? I'm looking for positive and negative opinions.  Any gotchas I should know about?

I've always used the Cisco type of CLI, so there will be a learning curve there. The traffic volume for this application will be 10-15g/sec of v4 and v6. Full BGP tables of each. And there will be some MPLS needed.
