You really should discuss this with you local Juniper rep in the first instance I would suggest.

I need to do MPLS (vlls), VXLAN, Multicast, full routing tables, multiple VRFs, q-in-q, QoS

Anything with 1Tbs of throughput should be more than enough at this time for me

I also need it to be able to support 100G interfaces, 1G and 10G

Hello!

We wouldn’t be able to give any sort of answer without knowing your current and future requirements. Each model has its own throughput classes, and sometimes a full on MX router isn’t required.

Hi,

Just out of curiosity, what would you recommend using for a core router/switch from Juniper?

MX208,480,10K

Datasheets show them all as very nice and powerful devices (although they do use a lot of rack space and side to side airflow is painful) but I’m just wondering here what most people use and how good or bad of an experience you have with it 😊

Thanks,
