First of all, ask them what position they are hiring for. If you do not have any other experience they will offer you software engineer 3 and typical pay is below 120k base. If you get anything near 125k I will be surprised. Now, if we are talking about software engineer 4, then base is around 140k. I would suggest look for other companies. With even a moderate level of online search you would know that Juniper is a sinking ship. Even after this warning, if you wish to pursue this, ask for more base salary. And last thing, they never pay targetted bonus percentage. It has been averaging out to 70-75% of the 'target' bonus from last 3-4 years. Bottom line is, run in the opposite direction.

$125k base is doable for SW3!

My advice would be to stay away from Juniper. It is an extremely mismanaged company. Nepotism is prevalent in Juniper. If you are not good at sucking up, you will be doomed inside Juniper.
