Re: OT: Ericsson SSR Router Vs Juniper MX series

Hi Alberto

Can u give me the hardware forwarding performance rate for SSR for BNG
based networks and Juniper MX960.
I need to have 100000 subscribers and each subscriber has a separate QOS
profile with policies and services attached to each subscriber and also i
need to have a SLA tracker with each subscriber .

THe forwarding latency fo the box should not be more than 100 ms . The
forwarding throughput should be close to wire rate.
I also need Fabric based switches for this requirement as the subscribers
may scale in future.

THanks
