Pedro, Please also keep in mind that the Juniper EX4500 is an end of life product. Soon you won't be able to get Juniper to support you. That's why there are so many for so cheap on eBay.

Hey Pedro,
I have some idea to put switch before bgp router in order to terminate isp 10G uplinks on switch, not router. Main reason is that could be some kind of 1st level of defence against ddos, second reason, less important, save cost of router ports, do many port mirrors.
I don't understand your rationale, unless your router is software box, but as it has 10G interface, probably not. Your router should be able to limit packets in HW, likely with better counter and filtering options than cheap switch.
