![]() Never mind, you can virtualize your Olive boxes. I want to build Olive but what if I don't have any spare computer to run Junos? It makes Olive not acceptable in a real network infrastructure when forwarding must be stable and predictable without dependency on router's CPU.Īnother limitation is that not all the configuration options are working with Olive. They are not any ASIC there to speed up packet forwarding process.ĭue to lack of ASIC, packet forwarding is entirely dependent on performance of CPU in your computer. Imagine Olive as a Juniper router without Packet Forwarding engine. Have in the mind that Olive cannot substitute hardware manufactured by Juniper. Instead of buying Juniper hardware you can add several NICs to your old PC and have fun with one the most powerful network operating systems. If you are interested in learning JUNOS, building Olive is probably the most cheapest way to do it. ![]() It is a network operating system developed by Juniper. In theory, Olive is JUNOS installed on x86-based hardware instead of Juniper hardware.
