I prefer Junos as screenOS except for one thing : HA is a hell to configure with Junos whereas it's really easy to do it with screenOS, at least last time I tried a couple of months ago. Anyway, ScreenOS cli really sucks compared to JunOS cli. Pierre-Yves 2010/4/20 seph s...@directionless.org

Count me in as well. I ditched my personal Netscreens and replaced with SRXs and we have done so as well at my day job. Other than a few quirky things, they are very nice. V6 support is still somewhat limited though, but I am using an SRX210H with ADSL2 PIM as my main router at home and it has

I will admit I have the same issue with a both my BGP sessions over GRE as well, which is really annoying, but I only use this for remote hopping over to my other lab, not for anything I would ever do in production so I haven't bothered opening a case on it yet. Glad to know I am not the only
