Yes, this is a BNT switch. Juniper have zero plans to adapt this switch to run JunOS. In fact, as it stands, the EX2500 will have no L3 functionality (according to Juniper), whereas if you get this from BNT directly, you will see additional features. That, alongside the fact that JunOS has been licensed to BNT probably means that BNT will be doing the development on this switch and not Juniper in order for it to run JunOS if it ever does. This was initially OEM'd with a single customer in mind for a Low Latency environment as part of a much larger deal. If you specifically want a Juniper 10G switch, then Id wait until the EX4500 is available, else direct to BNT for EX2500, as its cheaper and has more functionality than the OEM'd model and support will be direct as opposed to going to Customer -> JTAC -> BNT -> JTAC -> CUSTOMER. -- andy [email protected] ----------------------------------------------- Never argue with an idiot.
