Do I read it right it's just basically 9006-2 with some RU savings?

But MX104 can't hold the full internet routing table in forwarding-table so it's good only for peering or can it indeed? > I'd likely never deploy an MX104 in places where the MX480/960 or the > larger ASR9900 routers are better-suited, i.e., major Ethernet aggregation. > > Mark. I think MX104 can be a nice small town PE to aggregate the town ring so no competition to MX480/960 adam _______________________________________________ juniper-nsp mailing list juniper-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp
