Juniper ACX710. Yes it also has more ports, but you only pay for the capacity you need (100G minimum). So you could buy a license that would allow you to enable 10x 10G with the 100G ports dormant. On Fri, Oct 16, 2020 at 11:57 PM <adamv0025@netconsultings.com> wrote:
For this particular gig even the MX204 would be overkill in terms of price as well as performance.
Ideally something like 204 but with only those 8 10/1G ports (i.e. without the 4x100G ports)

Yeah the XR thing would be great but NCS540 would be too expensive and too much throughput meaning draws too much power,
