S-SA-UP-256K Use Case
Accelerating 5G Mobile Backhaul with MX960 Route Scale Upgrade
A tier-1 service provider deploying MX960 routers at the network edge needed to support exponentially growing 5G cell-site advertisements and multicast wholesale services. By upgrading the S-SA-UP license from 128K to 256K routes, the operator doubled its FIB capacity, enabling seamless aggregation of dense small-cell sites, improved jitter and latency for real-time voice/video traffic, and future‐proof scaling for roaming and IoT backhaul.
High-Performance Multi-Cloud Interconnect for Global Enterprise
A multinational enterprise consolidating data centers for SaaS, IaaS and private-cloud workloads faced BGP table exhaustion on its MX960-based cloud on-ramp. Upgrading from 128K to 256K route entries empowered the IT team to establish additional BGP sessions with AWS, Azure and Google Cloud, optimize path selection with full Internet routing tables, and deliver sub-millisecond response times, boosting application resilience and end-user productivity.
Carrier-Grade Wholesale IP Transit and DDoS Mitigation
A wholesale carrier leveraged MX960 routers to provision IP transit and advanced security services to downstream ISPs and content providers. The S-SA-UP license upgrade to 256K routes enabled granular BGP route filtering, blackholing of malicious prefixes and support for new peering exchanges. The result: 2× higher route scale, improved DDoS filtering capacity and stronger SLAs that generated upsell opportunities and reduced churn.
