Cisco are selling not only 12000 Series Router when they meet Juniper. They
sell a total solution. 12000 + 6509 (GigabitEthernet Switches). You know --
ATM are dying.

I do agree with Brian. Juniper's features are so limited since they have no
ipx/appletalk/ibm. However, It is a fact that people are migrating to
Juniper because of MPLS.

Do you think Cisco high-end models with no problems?? I get dialy report
from Cisco on bugs alert.

When you type "show config". You may think it looks like C. Because they add
"{", "}" to better manage the config. I think we should try to accept new
thing not just happy with Cisco CLI.

There are no different when you config the router However, Junos provides
CLI features that are good for large config file.

It's apples and oranges. Yes, someone can be faster if it's a
stripped down model with hardly any features. Let's see what kind of
problems they have when they start adding features... ;-) I've heard they
already have a problem with 30% of their packets being out of
sequence. And personally, I've seen one of their configs and it's
ugly. You would like it if you're a programmer because the config looks
like C. Not my idea of fun... my $.02 anyway.
