Re: OT: Ericsson SSR Router Vs Juniper MX series

If Price is the case, check Huwaie NE series, you will not be disappointed,
I have seen big big ISPs here in middleeast who never in their DREAM wanted
to go for Huwaie (you know right how we networking guys always think Cisco,
Juniper,F5 , Brocade and others but NO HUWAIE). However after seeing the
price difference they went for Huwai.

I know big deal of Smart City soluiton here in middleeast where Cisco
worked like crazy on prices but at the end HUWAI took the prices. I really
doubt if anyone can beat HUWAI prices : )
