Thanks everyone for your input.

 

Does the mx80 support all the mpls L3vpn and L2vpn things I mentioned ?

Yeah the PTX1K is a 2.88 Tbps box with 28 100G ports, not exactly comparable to a ACX or ASR920 in ports or pricing.  :)  Cisco doesn't really have anything comparable to it at the moment. The ACX or MX80 is what Juniper has that competes with the ASR920.  


Except the MX80 is too bit and too pricey, even with the license-based variants.

The ACX5000 was a reasonable attempt, but that Broadcom chipset is a liability. As always, Juniper continue to drop the ball on this, and let all that Metro-E business go to Cisco, Brocade and others. When will they learn? I'm done beating that horse...
