[j-nsp] EX Switch Question

[Paul Stewart]

Thanks Pavel...

So is there anything reasonably priced in the Juniper lineup for this kind
of situation or do we look at Cisco/other?

Cheers,

Paul

Just don't go there. EX is in no way a metro SP switch.

Very common case, we've been discussing it with many customers, who
their-selves want a Juniper metro SP solution, maybe once a week since the
EX series was launched. After all that I am 100% sure this is not what EX is
all about.
