These days almost all networking equipment connects using ethernet. The Juniper MX2K family comprises very large ethernet routers providing both layer 2 ( switching) and layer 3 (routing) services.

The MX2010 and MX2020 can operate in both the edge and also the core network.

The main difference between the two models is the MX2010 can have 10 line cards, 8 switch fabric cards (SFB and SFB2 enhanced)  and 2 routing engines, whereas the MX2020 can have 20 line cards.
