Definitely not a JNPR representative :), but I did see this quote in another article which would seem to answer your first question:
"We want anyone else's operating system to run on our hardware, and anyone's hardware to run our software," Mike Marcellin, Juniper senior VP and CMO, tells Light Reading.

Maybe I can get a new Juniper contact to ask these types of questions off-list. *wink, wink, nudge, nudge* Earlier today, two articles popped up re: Juniper dis-aggregating their new Junos OS: * http://www.networkworld.com/article/3000815/lan-wan/juniper-disaggregates-even-further.html * https://www.sdxcentral.com/articles/news/juniper-floats-new-cloud-offers-junos-os-as-standalone/2015/11/ The articles seem to imply that Junos OS will be available on open networking switches (enabled via ONIE). But I have the following questions: * Is the converse true? Will Juniper sell bare metal switches (the two OCP switches under the OCX line) and the upcoming QFX5200 without Junos OS? * Does Juniper plan on going through ONIE compliance (https://github.com/opencomputeproject/onie/wiki/Certification-Proceedure) for the QFX5200? I'm assuming so since the OCX (Alpha Networks) devices went through it earlier this year as part of their OCP acceptance. Thanks in advance and again, sorry for the blast. +--+ Carlos _______________________________________________ opencompute-networking mailing list Unsubscribe: http://lists.opencompute.org/mailman/options/opencompute-networking opencompute-networking@lists.opencompute.org<mailto:opencompute-networking@lists.opencompute.org> http://lists.opencompute.org/mailman/listinfo/opencompute-networking
