Hello,
We have setup a new network . WE have decided the Cisco Internetwork Operating System software current Cisco network switches and router. But our client said about Juniper's JUNOS. So i dont know which one is best as per as performance concerned? can you help me out ? Any suggestion??

Juniper Networks makes its unique approach system operating high-performance networking. using JUNOS throughout its routing, switching and other application specific platforms lowers cost and facilitates operations and management.
Cisco, on the other hand, introduce a new operating system every product launch, a practice that is becoming more than the original version of IOS a distant memory. This year alone, Cisco has unveiled a new operating system to switch its data center and another for its latest generation of edge routers, nearly four years after launching yet another for its core routers.
If Juniper is correct, it would seem that Cisco is playing right into his hands.

Cisco, meanwhile, claims its various operating system flavors - IOS, IOS XR, IOS XE and NX-OS - designed to meet customer requirements for more consistency across and optimization in product segments. Cisco maintains a consistent user interface across Cisco IOS, IOS XE, IOS XR and NX-OS while addressing segment or architecture specific requirements, "said Suraj Shetty, senior director of marketing service providers at Cisco." Seeing Juniper claim that an operating system all products ... was surprising. They JUNOS, JUNOS ES, ScreenOS, JUNOSe, IVE OS, NetScreen-IDP, WXOS, CTP and even an operating system OEM for their Security Threat Response Manager, and each has a different user interface. This requires a much larger burden on customers than our approach, which is to address the needs said customers while maintaining a consistent look-and - Feel. "Juniper has now started 12 years ago with a clean slate to develop an operating system service provider routers.'s routers and the JUNOS operating system that controlled them were" purpose built "for market service providers, a key differentiator for the company vis-Ã*-vis Cisco and its spin-offs of IOS.
Since then, however, Juniper has expanded its target markets - especially now - and has acquired several companies, including the Unisphere in edge routing and NetScreen in the corporate VPN. Despite his rhetoric ironic to many operating systems, Juniper admits now face some of the same challenges as Cisco.

Two of the main characteristics that distinguish and Cisco IOS operating systems from Juniper Networks JUNOS is their heritage and the many versions on the market. The third is their architecture. JUNOS, on the other hand, was built as a modular operating system. The kernel is based on open source operating system FreeBSD and processes that run as modules on top of the kernel are separated exclusively to protect the memory space. Users can add features and functions of the version of JUNOS running on their systems without disabling the entire operating system - a feature known as upgrades to software service that also improves uptime and availability.
