The time I was talking to JTAC about this, they claimed they 
were working on some kind of improvements for the EX to 
allow it to do MPLS-based hashing.

However, another engineer was, at the same time, saying the 
limitation is hardware in nature. So that was confusing.

Nonetheless, we just switched to Cisco switches and were 
happy.
