Agree for Juniper world MX40 would probably do you fine. But at 10Gbps and "a few thousand" subscribers I'd be tempted to knock up something on Linux and see how it goes for you. Maybe beta something with a portion of your subscribers? Grow it if it's successful. You wouldn't be the only person in the world to scale by throwing more 7301's at the problem either, to be honest. Perhaps a cheap stop-gap while you decide on long term way forward. Set a session limit for each box at a point you are comfortable with etc.. :) On Wed, Nov 8, 2017 at 8:11 AM, Dave Mill <[email protected]> wrote: > A Juniper MX40 or MX80 seems to meet your needs there - depending on exact > subscriber figures.
