With very few exceptions (generally caused by bugs, really poorly written code, or vendor locking gone awry), XENPAKs and other pluggable optics are are universally supported in any format for any device which accepts them. To Juniper's credit, I can't say that I've ever seen them fail to support the basic functionality of a pluggable optic, or play any kind of vendor locking games. They probably just don't sell LW XENPAKs directly, and thus have no reason to list it as supported or unsupported in documentation. From that webpage, even in versions of code which predated "support" for the SR or ZR optics, the only thing that probably wasn't "supported" was displaying the name of the part correctly in the CLI. -- Richard A Steenbergen <[email protected]> http://www.e-gerbil.net/ras GPG Key ID: 0xF8B12CBC (7535 7F59 8204 ED1F CC1C 53AF 4C41 5ECA F8B1 2CBC) _______________________________________________ juniper-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp
