[j-nsp] 10G BGP EX vs MX series implementation?

EX4500 can't handle full tables and the only way to make it redundant is
through 2 of them in virtual chassis (not really the same as having two RE's
in the same chassis)...

I wish there was a way to make MX80 more redundant too ;)

Hi, I want to purchase a 10G device that supports

- 4x 10G port

- 3x full BGP table (ISP) plus about 5 BGP customers

- 10x 1G port



I was attracted to buy an MX-80 with it's 4x 10G ports unblocked.



The downside of the MX80 is that it cannot be processor redundant (only from
240 and up) .



Can a EX4500 handle the BGP part? It is cheaper and I think it can be
redundant.
