Here's an article from _Business Communications Review_ on Juniper. If you search on this thread you will find discussion on Juniper a few months ago [when I, too, misread the name and thought it was the planet instead of the berry].

Router Startups Betting on MPLS
Volume 28, Number 11
November 1998, pp. 14-16

By Sandra Borthick (sandyb@mcimail.com), BCR's technical editor.

The following is the full text of the printed article:

Begging Bigger Questions

If Juniper is hitching its wagon to the slow-moving MPLS star, and if ISPs need
MPLS as a traffic engineering tool to handle today's best-effort traffic, what does
this imply about their ability to support QOS and VPNs for more stringent traffic
types like voice, video and mission-critical data?

The short answer is that the full-service Internet is farther away than ISPs might
care to admit. Getting there may also take more than MPLS can provide,
according to analyst Tom Nolle of CIMI Corp. (www.cimi.com).
