Author Tired of Cisco IPSec bugs...Is Juniper any better?

Is the grass really greener on the other side?

Has anyone here used Juniper (M class) with the VPN module? I'd like to
hear some real world stories from people with Juniper experience.
Things like how it fails over, real world throughput etc.

Basically, it has to support one or two OC3's with IPSec enabled. The
other side of the OC3s will be branch routers with T1s (3600's, 2600s,
3700s)

Currently, we use 7200VXRs with ISA and VAM cards. Can't use VAM-II's
since the IOS code required is not our standard....nor does is support
RSA Encryption as far as I know. Afterall, Cisco had to write in
support for RSA Encr (VAM) for us in the train we're on.

Also, due to BW point limitations as well as weak IPSec throughput, we
can't even load it up with HSSI cards.

We will evaluate 6500 VPN appliance boxes, but I might as well as try
out Juniper.

Thanks

We're having more or less the same kind of trouble. Could you share the
results with the rest of us?

Juniper eval or the 6500 VPN eval? (or both?)

Actually, the general consensus seems to be that if you want strong
technical performance, you should almost always go outside Cisco. The
reasons to stay with Cisco are familiarity and good support, but not
performance. Cisco is like McDonald's - consistent and familiar. But if
you want something really good, you don't go to McDonald's.

For starters....

CSCdy41412
CSCed51546
CSCed62129
CSCed13108

And we have one more to add (router goes bye-bye) but no clue as to
what's causing it yet. Our account team tells us it's been escalated
as far as possible within Cisco.
