Integrating the QFX switches was the first point of challenge, particularly aligning them with our data center's architecture. I also had challenge with scalability.

I faced issues with the deployment and upgrade. In the QFX5110 series, features like ISSU and TSSQ should be improved. Upgrades should be smoother. Also, Juniper doesn't offer dedicated fiber connectivity for storage This can be a pain when designing for Dell or other storage solutions that need dedicated switches. This functionality should be included in the QFX series. Either enhancement would work. Or they could introduce a new product. Cisco and other vendors offer similar solutions.

There is room for improvement in the pricing model. It is too high. The QFX series switches are pretty solid in terms of features and functionality. But one other thing that could be improved is the user interface. It can be a bit complicated for new users, and it takes some time to get used to it. Another thing is knowledge is the problem in our region. People or engineers are not familiar with Juniper. That's why Juniper is a vendor that has no great market share here. But, if Juniper decided to develop a strategy to push their product in our market, they would have a very good share of the market because the product is good.

I can't think of specific improvements, but the truth is that with every software update, there come new improvements and expanding functionalities that we use successfully.
What is an Ethernet switch? An Ethernet switch connects devices like computers, laptops, servers, and printers to a local area network (LAN) and to each other. The switch then functions as a central connecting station.
You can boost the Ethernet’s capacity by wiring switches to each other. Unlike routers, Ethernet switches use multiple ports to enable devices in the LAN. Unmanaged switches are a type of plug-in switch that will work when connected, without the need to configure them...
