[j-nsp] SRX Experiences - Was: JUNOS 10.4S6 for EX8200 - PR/676826

[Scott T. Cameron]

I have 2x chassis cluster with SRX3400s.

ALGs will destroy your soul.  Avoid at all costs.
Chassis cluster upgrades are needlessly painful (imo).
Session counts can become exhausted very easily and lead to a very quick and
dreadful DOS.

Most of my early adopter issues have disappeared with updates over time and
the software is quite stable for me in the past 6 months.
