[j-nsp] Juniper PTX1000

[Aaron]

I was thinking about the ptx1000 as a supercore fast mpls swapping p-box.  I understand it can have (24) 100 gig !

I've seen the PTX1000 referred to as a supercore router , and I understand it has MPLS LSR functions (someone told me that it does not do mpls edge (pe) functions)

...i see/hear no mention of mpls for this 7280...

...i have heard of the NCS5500 but I think it only has (4) 100 gig and we are wanting 6 or more.  Does cisco have a small form factor mpls router with lots of 100 gig ?

There’s 3 main boxes in this space, the Cisco NCS550x, PTX1K and the Arista 7280 all with varying positives/negatives based on your use case.

I’m not aware of many other full fib scale devices in this profile, if I’m missing some I’d like to know :-)
