You mean the "DPC", right :-)?

Yes, the Trios make some of that functionality native, but 
not in the MX80. For the MX80, some features require a MIC.

I don't like this about Juniper, never have. But Cisco are 
also "license-heavy", especially on their newer platforms 
and code. I don't like that either.

It's hard enough buying a box. It's hard enough getting the 
box to do what you want it to do without falling over or 
lacking features.

Mark.
