      Firstly, a BIG BIG thanks to all the replies.

I would like to add one comment onto this, the Black Diamonds would be used
for purely switching and nothing else.
The Junipers would do the routing, BGP tables etc...

As for as TheTollyGroup how much credibility do these guys hold?

Thanks again.

How are these for CORE SWITCHES (distribution) compared to BigIron and the
CISCO 6509?
...
From what I have heard and reports they are very solid switches.
Thanks in advance
