Yes. Satellite is basically VLAN aggregation, but a little bit less broken. Both are much inferior to MPLS. But usually that's not the comparison due to real or perceived cost reasons. So in absence of a vendor selling you the front-plate you need, option space often considered is satellite or vlan aggregation, instead of connecting some smaller MPLS edge boxes to bigger aggregation MPLS boxes, which would be, in my opinion, obviously better. But as discussed, centralised chassis boxes are appearing as a new option to the option space. -- ++ytti _______________________________________________ juniper-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp
