Keep in mind that the recert process not only costs money, but I don't believe Juniper will recert EOL gear, which the M5/M10 and RE-2.0 are.
As for the cost of new gear, in your case, you have working Cisco gear which may provide you a discount. Juniper sometimes runs specials where you can trade in Cisco 7200s for a discount off M7i routers. This was a few years ago, so I'm not sure if they still do it now. -evt > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of > Pierantozzi Craig > Sent: Tuesday, May 22, 2007 11:27 AM > To: TCIS List Acct > Cc: [email protected] > Subject: Re: [j-nsp] Juniper M-series vs 72xx/NPE-G2 > > [snip] > > - Does anyone have advise regarding Juniper's recertification > > process on used > > gear?
