[j-nsp] Decent J-Series software version

[Chris Kawchuk]

- 10.2R4.8 on J2320's	512M RAM; but in packet-mode (as I'm using it for an MPLS/CPE endpoint), which is the last version you can use without upgrading the CF/RAM.
- 10.4R8.5 on J2320's 	1Gb RAM, packet mode (same as above as MPLS CPE/endpoint) - I've had good luck with 10.4R8.5 so far though; but again, no sessions/flows.
- 10.0R2.10 or 10.0R3.10 on J2320's w/1Gb RAM in Security/Flow mode, but no IPv6

Sorry couldn't be of any more help here. Haven't had a reason to run IPv6+Security yet; as we generally aren't using these J's for their fire-walling capabilities (MPLS CPE instead); or if we do (for a customer), it's for IPv4 only so far.

- Chris.
