Phone System Chassis
Juniper versus Cisco...thoughts?
We're splitting our HQ in two, moving about 40 folks over to a new location. We have an Avaya phone system and will be deploying IP phones at the new site over a pair of bonded point-to-point T1's.
Our phone vendor is recommending Juniper J2300's on both ends...I've read a few bad reviews and some good reviews of Juniper. I'm cross-shopping a Cisco 1841 on one end (costs about $400 more than the Juniper) and a Cisco 2811 on the other end (costs more but has 4 WIC slots...more on that later).
The reason I'm looking at a beefier router on the HQ end is that I'd like to potentially retire some of our SonicWALL devices to sort of 'clean up' what has become a pretty complex network and condense them into one chassis....and I hear that Juniper's strength is firewalls...in which case realistically I'd probably go for a J2320, again to get the extra slots...but the 2320 costs about the same as the Cisco....
...so do I go with the newcomer Juniper or do I 'Pay the Piper' for Cisco?
Go with Cisco, the IOS is basically a stripped down version of Cisco and offers less configuration. I work in a data centre and almost all our kit is Cisco based, we use PIX firewalls for security and tend to tread away from Juniper. Cisco will probably end up buying them out anyway, networking rivalry is pretty week with a manopoly like Cisco.
Having said all this, to be honest I dont have much experience of juniper, I've worked with a M series router and remember it being Cisco for newbiews, I also have some vague memory of ACL's being weird (could be why thefirewalls are highly recommened). What I do know is that the IOS isn't as strong and was extremely easy to learn following Cisco experience, stick to what you know anyway, thats my vague advice.
If you can ever afford it and have a big enough network to facilitate it the Cisco 6500's are the best kit I've ever worked with, simply amazing!
