Jack,
There is no such thing avaiable publicly as a PC version of Juniper. Junos was
developed on FreeBSD but is now substantially it's
own code. Juniper have a thing called an Olive which is not available outside t
he company but is Junos running on a PC. Olive's get
used for training purposes only and are not available to the public.
If it is of interest here are some differences between Junos and IOS.
Junos can rollback to previous config versions.
Within Junos config mode you can show the config and run cli commands such as s
how interface.
Junos is completely hierarchical hence the config file when listed looks like g
ated, the brackets preserve the hierarchy.
Configs changes do not go live until they are committed.
When you commit you can get the config to rollback to the previous version auto
matically if you have cut yourself off from the
remote end.
The Junos debug equivalent will not kill the router.
Juniper routers have hard drives (3.2gb/6.4gb) which allows for the saving of c
onfigs/log files etc.
Juniper's are IP/MPLS only box's primarily aimed at service provider core netwo
rks.
Juniper have no certifications.
Other than that a router is a router if they both work who is to say that one i
s better than the other?
