>>Juniper's strategy doesn't end with acquisitions. While Cisco has been out spending billions on Cerent Corp., Monterey Networks Inc., and Pirelli Optical Systems, Juniper has been quietly making smaller investments in strategic partners like Zaffire Inc., a DWDM vendor www.zaffire.com, Optical Networks Inc. a metropolitan area network equipment vendor opticalnetworks.com, and Yipes Inc, a next generation service provider yipes.com. Kriens says there is actually nothing new about this approach. It's just an expansion of what Juniper has been doing all along. Wrong. There is nothing new about that approach because Cisco has been doing it bigger and better than anyone for years. Cisco currently has interests in over 90 smaller firms.
