Thanks Rubens, We need a good pricing on 10Gbps ports (who doesnt!) and also oversubscription support. Moreover, we would like to see 100Gbps backplane/chassis capability (We are still evaluating both products). We like the fact that 7600 has richer interface variety (non ethernet ports) but we get concerned about software stability vis-a-vis JUNOS. Also, in our experience finding junos-certified personnel has been a tougher task than ios-certified personnel (something that would affect opex in a significant way).
