Juniper M7i, M10i and the US DREN's IPV6 project
Here are some interesting tidbits found recently... The US DoD will be using a Juniper "M7i" for their ipv6 testbed: https://spot.hpcmo.hpc.mil/hpc/docs/Htdocs/DOC-MIL/DREN/CONFERENCE/2003/2003... Mention of the M7i and M10i in this document: http://216.239.41.104/search?q=cache:CHexJWF9Db0J:www.ietf.org/IESG/Implementations/rfc-2338-implementation.txt+juniper+m7i&hl=en&ie=UTF-8 From the PDF, regarding DREN implemention of ipv6: No great incentive for DREN sites to implement IPv6 no near term win additional effort and complexity, generally not funded Can't deploy in a safe and secure manner Existing DREN intrusion detection (IDS) architecture incompatible with maturity of products in use Juniper port mirror lacks IPv6 support Anybody know what a the new M7i and M10i routers are? Specs, price estimates, release dates, etc?

The M7i is supposed to compete with the Cisco 7100/7200. It is designed as a provider managed CPE for DS3 and OC3 level customers. At least that is the niche they are targeting. It will come in two flavors - integrated dual port 100Base-T or single GigE. It also has an optional service engine for firewall, VPN, IDS, etc. which plugs into the SCB/FPC. I don't think they have been released into production yet, but I could be wrong. -Robert Tellurian Networks - The Ultimate Internet Connection http://www.tellurian.com | 888-TELLURIAN | 973-300-9211 "Good will, like a good name, is got by many actions, and lost by one." - Francis Jeffrey

They're mentioned in the release notes for JunOS 6.1 FWIW. Chris. -- == chrisy@flix.net
