So there have been some developments re: this thread. As it pertains to the both the MX204 and MX10003, Juniper have made the following amendments: * EoS = 2023. * End of new features = 2024. * End of bug fixes = 2028. * End of critical features = 2028. * EoL = 2029. FWIW. Mark.

Thank you for calling out the HMC point. I think that alone is worth retiring the platforms that were built around it. The number of issues related the the HMC memory drivers were out of hand early on, and lingered long past the growing pains phase. I’m sure in the big picture, supply chain /

Just to put a little more flesh on that bone (having spent about a decade going to ICANN conferences): Although organized under ICANN, address allocation would generally be the role of IANA which would assign address blocks to RIRs for distribution. It's a useful distinction because IANA and

I think the more common solution for something like that would be to use one 100GbE port as a trunk on a MX204 or MX304 to a directly adjacent 1U 48-port SFP+ switch in a purely L2 role used as a port expander, with dwdm/bidi/other unique types of SFP+ optics inserted in that. On Tue, 14 Jun

So Juniper have gone ahead and announced the EoL of some key devices that, IMHO, are nowhere near past their prime:     - MX204 (to be replaced by the MX304)     - MX10003 (to be replaced by the MX304)     - PTX1000 (to be replaced by the PTX10001) Re: the PTX1000, I know it is a component
