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

Correa,

The EX4500 isn't going to support 3x full BGP tables.

You can take a look the MX240 if you want a single box with redundant REs, or use (2) MX80s fully meshed.

Thank you,

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.
