Warm Spare Between MX100 and MX105

[cxp_tcsd]

Can the MX100 and MX105 be setup in a warm standby configuration with each other?

@cxp_tcsd unfortunately not.  Warm spare configuration always has to be the same hardware model.

The reason devices have to be the same is so that end users don't buy a lower tier device and then wonder why its performance isn't as good or cannot support the number of client devices.

This is a common theme with every vendor I have dealt with.

@cxp_tcsd  You could always use it as a cold spare.
