Hello NANOG Group,
I am curious if anyone has any experiences positive or negative with Juniper MX-80s. Our recent experience with Juniper has not been great both in terms of new product offerings (SRX) and software bugs in the recent revs of Junos for the MX platform. I want to know if the MX-80 functions as advertised and in specific can properly handle two full IPv4 and IPv6 BGP feeds
Thanks in advance,
Babak
Babak,
For one of our customers we run two MX-80's. Both with two full routing peers plus a lot of other smaller BGP peerings at a local IX. So far no strange behaviour or poor performance. Peerings are all IPv4 and IPv6. I don't know if you would need specific features but for the basic border router functionality it seems to perform as expected.
Regards,
Mark

yes, juniper has become a router vendor of sufficient scale to have all
the good and the bad. such is life.

I'm curious about these too. Specifically, does anyone have experience/thoughts on the anti-DDoS features? I know there are scenarios it wouldn't begin to address, but are they worth spending time to fiddle with? Also, is anyone taking JFlow off of them? We're trying to figure out how much we could sample while doing about 900Mbps. I'm not sure what our PPS looks like off the top of my head.
TIA.
I'm probably way off here, but: Imagine an MX with a single RE, 1
MX-MPC2-3D-Q that can be populated with your choice of MICs in FPC-1
and 1 MIC-3D-4XGE-XFP in FPC-0. But, they run a little hot.
