[j-nsp] Juniper MX5 vs Brocade CER

[Jerry Jones]

Number of 10G ports just knocked the CER out of consideration for a customer of mine.

Also if you want to do any services such as BRAS which many 7200 are used for, then Juniper is a clear winner.

Hey all,

I have a customer asking us about upgrading their border routers.  They
currently use Cisco 7200's.

We obviously have been recommending Juniper, but they've been looking
around and have come back to us asking us about the Brocade CER200-RT units.

By the specs and price, they certainly look good, but they are asking us
'why not' ?

So beyond all the website/vendor marketing hype... is there anything that
people have had experience with that would help me guide them towards
Juniper?  Or are these units just too good to beat?
