Yes. It's old old feature: https://www.juniper.net/documentation/en_US/junos/topics/concept/logical-systems-overview-solutions.html The ability to run multiple FreeBSD KVM on Linux guest is very new. It also allows you to connect the separate instances via virtual fabric interface, so you don't need to eat physical interface to connect the separate instances. This is really 100% separate JunOS, they only share the Linux hypervisor from software POV. https://www.juniper.net/documentation/en_US/junos/information-products/pathway-pages/junos-node-slicing/junos-node-slicing.html Use case might be buy 128GB RE, collapse edge + pure-core without having hardware. Or Megaport on steroids, drop Calient optical switch in pops and MX, have customers build via API their entire global backbone in seconds, with active devices and optical network to connect them. > Yeah all the costs are in edge devices, even core routers HW is order of > magnitude more expensive than that of RRs Depends, for access networks, 5 year costs tend to be dominated on MRC's on the backhauls. -- ++ytti _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list cisco-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
