Hi ,

I have no exact idea about the number of instances you can configure in
each platform(juniper).but i read it is 2 instances on mx960 on the same
ports;only 1 instance at global level.

Any experts please confirm the number of port-mirroring instances on
juniper devices or atleast on mx960.?


Cheers
Siva
