Re: Cisco vs Juniper Security (OT)

Am I diffreent world or still in the same planet name "EARTH"

I gave interviews (although I am CCIE Security Alhumdulilah) but people
asked me for Juniper Prdocuts very deep and they are very much trust Juniper
products then Cisco (Security devices I mean)

Yes Cisco is very big player overall no doubt about that

But atleast in Middle-east ( I can tell you about UAE AND KSA) that Cisco is
running for its money and Juniper is really catching the market very fast

Both players will reamin in the market with their goods and bads but as
security engineer I need to know atleast both Juniper and Cisco stuff

Thanks
