Re: Mx204 alternative

[Randy Carpenter <rcarpen () network1 net>]

If you don't require redundant routing engines, there is nothing from Juniper that will cost less and have the capacity 
you require. In fact, there really aren't any cheaper MX options at all, other than the kneecapped MX80 and MX104 
variants. MX204 is really a nice box. I only wish they had a redundant version. 

Is price your only concern with the MX204? You might not need the full blown -R or -IR version, so the list price would 
only be ~$45K. 

I'm not too familiar with other vendors, so I'll leave that to others. 

thanks,
