In $dayjob I have been using HP MSR routers for pretty much exactly that
set of requirements for quite a few years and found them to be very
good. They do have MPLS, the only thing on your list missing is a VDSL
option, so at present we are using a Draytek 130 modem in those situations.
I would suggest looking at the MSR954 or the MSR1002-4 we tend to prefer
the latter because they also have the option of supporting voice modules
(E1/ISDN30). Both of these are new models with Comware 7 support. If
you have not used Comware before it is pretty Cisco like but with some
of the keywords substituted (eg display instead of show). Incidentally
the OS also has the same heritage as Huawei's VRP router OS.
If you want super low cost then you could look at Mikrotik devices.
Cheers,
Ian

Hi All,
I’m looking to see what others are using as CE/CPE for entry level Ethernet services at the moment.
We’ve been a Juniper house for many years and our stock of legacy SRX’s is running low. Juniper have really dropped the ball and haven’t come up with a credible alternative that isn’t overpriced.
With the cost of Ethernet being where it is right now we can’t justify putting stupidly priced boxes on the end of circuits to perform basic routing functions.
Our requirements are gigabit performance, RJ45, SFP & ADSL/VDSL connectivity options, VRF functionality, OSPF/BGP, MPLS a bonus.
What is everyone else using to solve this challenge? I’d be interested to know…
Kind Regards,
Dan
