You do realize, don't you, that the interesting part of a Juniper is the microcode in their DSP routing engine. FreeBSD is only used to control the routing engine in a Juniper router, it isn't used AS the routing engine. I really doubt that anything Juniper has done to FreeBSD would be of much interest to anyone other than Cisco Systems, and Cisco would only be interested in it as a way of finding out weaknesses in Juniper routers that they could market against. Actually a more interesting example is some of the Linksys routers do indeed use an embedded Linux along with Zebra as the routing engine.
