Same discussion I had with them 2 weeks ago. The 9901 isn't really an
answer to the MX204.
Ultimately, I'd like to see an ASR920-10G, which gives us 12 - 24 ports
of 1/10Gbps, with 4x 10Gbps and/or 2x 100Gbps uplinks, running IOS XE. I
think a box like this would be more competitive than the MX204 for
Metro-E deployments where customers need 10Gbps last mile in the Access.
We'll see if they listen.
Mark.
