M7i is a very, very attractive lab/spare box, but this company wants carrier class - dual engine M10i are the minimum. John Crain wrote:

You might even consider the m7i they can use the same cards

I don't know much about Juniper but I'm about to learn with a new job. If I'm going to take full routes from a couple of upstreams and have a couple of peers will the M10i (768M max) be enough or is the M20 (2048M max) a better choice.

I think the quick answer based on just that requirement is "an M10i will do fine". I am not aware that Juniper sell a router which will struggle with a default configuration to handle a few views of the full table, but perhaps my rhetorical spectacles are unreasonably rosy right now.

Layout here is such that I'd expect to use a single quad gigabit port ethernet blade in each of a pair of M10i/M20 to achieve redundancy.

Is there a pricing resource for this stuff online some where? I do *not* want to hear from any sales people over this comment ...

Try checking the j-nsp archives at <https://puck.nether.net/pipermail/juniper-nsp/>. Good luck with not hearing from sales people.
