MX240 Router Overview

The MX240 3D Universal Edge Router is an Ethernet-optimized edge router that provides both switching and carrier-class Ethernet routing. The MX240 enables a wide range of business and residential applications and services, including high-speed transport and VPN services, next-generation broadband multiplay services, high-speed Internet and data center internetworking.
The MX240 router is five rack units (U) tall. Several routers can be stacked in a single floor-to-ceiling rack, for increased port density per unit of floor space.
Fully populated, the MX240 provides a maximum aggregate switch fabric capacity of up to 1.92 Tbps and line-rate throughput for up to 48 10-Gigabit Ethernet ports, or four 100-Gigabit Ethernet and eight 10-Gigabit Ethernet ports, or twelve 40-Gigabit Ethernet ports.
Table 3 on page 3 lists the MX240 router capacity.
Table 3: MX240 Router Capacity
The router provides two dedicated line card slots for Dense Port Concentrators (DPCs), Modular Port Concentrators (MPCs), or Flexible PIC Concentrators (FPCs). DPCs and MPCs each install into a single line-card slot. The FPC installs into both slots. The router also provides one dedicated slot for a Switch Control Board (SCB), and one multifunction slot for either one DPC, MPC, or SCB. Optionally, an FPC can be installed in both the

multifunction slot and lowest dedicated line card slot. The line cards are connected to one or two SCBs. See Table 4 on page 4 for the supported SCBs.
An FPC supports up to two PICs. An MPC supports up to two Modular Interface Cards (MICs).
Each DPC includes two or four Packet Forwarding Engines. Each Packet Forwarding Engine enables a throughput of 10 Gbps.
Several types of line cards, are available. For a list of the supported line cards, see the
MX Series Interface Module Reference.
Three SCBs are available for the MX240 routers—the SCB, the SCBE, and the SCBE2.
Table 4 on page 4 lists the MX240 SCBs.

The connections between line cards and SCBs are organized in three groups:
Switch fabric—Connects the line cards and provides for packet transport between the line cards.
Control plane—Gigabit Ethernet links between the combined SCBs/Routing Engines and each DPC, MPC, or FPC. All board-to-board information is passed over Ethernet except for low-level status and commands.
Management signals—Provide low-level status diagnostic support.

On the MX240 DC high capacity power supplies, the input mode switch tells the system what capacity feed is connected (60A or 70A). This is used for power inventory management. When the input mode switch is set to '0' (zero): expect 60A feeds, with a voltage range of -39V to -72VDC. When the input mode switch is set to '1' (one), expect either a 70A feed or a 60A feed with minimum voltage of 42V and up. The default setting of the input mode is 1 (e.g. 60A with voltages above 42VDC, or 70A).
Known bug: In Junos OS Releases 10.0R3, 10.1R2, and 10.2R1, the MX240 DC high capacity power supply input mode switch status is not properly reflected in the power inventory management, generating alarms incorrectly. This does not have any effect on the operation of the supply. [PR532230]

Important notes:
All supplies should have the same feed setting.
Correct usage of the feed setting is required for all supplies in order to get the desired power inventory management.
The XFP cages and optics on the MX240 router are industry standard parts that have limited tactile feedback for insertion of optics and fiber. You need to insert the optics and fiber firmly until the latch is securely in place. [PR/98055]
Do not mix AC and DC power supplies on an MX240 router. Mixing of AC supplies and DC supplies may damage your chassis. [PR/233340]

MX240 Component Redundancy

The MX240 chassis provides redundancy and resiliency. The hardware system is fully redundant, including power supplies, Routing Engines, and SCBs.
A fully configured router is designed so that no single point of failure can cause the entire system to fail. Only a fully configured router provides complete redundancy. All other configurations provide partial redundancy. The following major hardware components are redundant:
Host subsystem—Thehost subsystem consists of a Routing Engine functioning together with an SCB. The router can have one or two host subsystems. If two host subsystems are installed, one functions as the master and the other functions as the backup. If the master host subsystem (or either of its components) fails, the backup can take over as the master. To operate, each host subsystem requires a Routing Engine installed directly into in an SCB.
In the high-line (220 V) AC power configuration, the MX240 router contains one or two AC power supplies, located horizontally at the rear of the chassis in slots PEM0 and
PEM2 (left to right). The high-line configuration requires one power supply, with the
second power supply providing redundancy. Each AC power supply provides power to all components in the router. When two power supplies are present, they share power almost equally within a fully populated system. If one power supply fails or is removed, the remaining power supply assumes the entire electrical load without interruption. One power supply can provide the maximum configuration with full power for as long as the router is operational.

MX240 3D Universal Edge Router Hardware Guide
In the low-line (110 V) AC power configuration, the MX240 router contains either two AC power supplies (nonredundant), located horizontally at the rear of the chassis in slots PEM0 and PEM1 (left to right); or four AC power supplies (redundant), located in slots PEM0 through PEM3 (left to right). The low-line configuration requires two power supplies, and the third and fourth power supplies provide redundancy. Each AC power supply provides power to all components in the router. When two power supplies are present, they share power almost equally within a fully populatedsystem. If one power supply in a redundant configuration fails or is removed, the remaining power supplies assume the entire electrical load without interruption. Two power supplies provide the maximum configuration with full power for as long as the router is operational.
Cooling system—Thecooling system has redundant components, which are controlled by the host subsystem. If one of the fans fails, the host subsystem increases the speed of the remaining fans to provide sufficient cooling for the router indefinitely.

MX240 Alarm LEDs and Alarm Cutoff/Lamp Test Button

Two large alarm LEDs are located at the upper right of the craft interface. The circular red LED lights to indicate a critical condition that can result in a system shutdown. The triangular yellow LED lights to indicate a less severe condition that requires monitoring or maintenance. Both LEDs can be lit simultaneously.
A condition that causes an LED to light also activates the corresponding alarm relay contact on the craft interface.
To deactivate red and yellow alarms, press the button labeled ACO/LT (for “alarm cutoff/lamp test”), which is locatedto the right of the alarm LEDs. Deactivating an alarm turns off both LEDs and deactivates the device attached to the corresponding alarm relay contact on the craft interface.

MX240 Cooling System Description

The cooling system consists of the following components:
Fan tray
Air filter
The cooling system components work together to keep all router components within the acceptable temperature range (see Figure 8 on page 17, Figure 9 on page 18, and
Figure 10 on page 18). The router has one fan tray and one air filter that install vertically
in the rear of the router. The fan tray contains three fans. The MX Series high-capacity fan trays satisfy cooling requirements for high-density DPCs and MPCs, and must be upgraded for proper cooling.
The air intake to cool the chassis is located on the side of the chassis next to the air filter. Air is pulled through the chassis toward the fan tray, where it is exhausted out the side of the system.The air intake to cool the power supplies is located in the front of the router above the craft interface. The exhaust for the power supplies is located on the rear bulkhead power supplies.
Figure 8: Airflow Through the Chassis
The host subsystem monitors the temperature of the router components. When the router is operating normally, the fans function at lower than full speed. If a fan fails or

the ambient temperature rises above a threshold, the speed of the remaining fans is automatically adjusted to keep the temperature within the acceptable range. If the ambient maximum temperature specification is exceeded and the system cannot be adequately cooled,the Routing Engine shuts down the systemby disabling output power from each power supply.

MX240 Host Subsystem Description

The host subsystem provides the routing and system management functions of the router. You can install one or two host subsystems on the router. Each host subsystem functions as a unit; the Routing Engine must be installed directly into the Switch Control Board.
NOTE: We recommend that you install two host subsystems for redundant
protection. If you install only one host subsystem, we recommend that you install it in slot 0.
Each host subsystem has three LEDs that display its status. The host subsystem LEDs are located in the middle of the craft interface.

MX240 Midplane Description

The midplane is located toward the rear of the chassis and forms the rear of the card cage (see Figure 11 on page 22). The line cards and SCBs install into the midplane from the front of the chassis, and the power supplies install into the midplane from the rear of the chassis. The cooling system components also connect to the midplane.
The midplane performs the following major functions:
Data path—Data packets are transferred across the midplane between the line cards through the fabric ASICs on the SCBs.
Power distribution—The router power supplies connect to the midplane, which distributes power to all the router components.
Signal path—The midplane provides the signal path to the line cards, SCBs, Routing Engines, and other system components for monitoring and control of the system.

MX240 Routing Engine Description

The Routing Engine is an Intel-basedPC platform that runs Junos OS. Software processes that run on the Routing Engine maintain the routing tables,manage the routing protocols used on the router, control the router interfaces, control some chassis components, and provide the interface for system management and user access to the router.
You can install one or two Routing Engines in the router. The Routing Engines install into the front of the chassis in horizontal slots in the SCBs labeled 0 and 1/0. Each Routing Engine must be installed directly into an SCB. A USB port on the Routing Engine accepts a USB memory card that allows you to load Junos OS.
If two Routing Engines are installed, one functions as the master and the other acts as the backup. If the master Routing Engine fails or is removed and the backup is configured appropriately, the backup takes over as the master. The Backup Routing Engine is hot-insertable and hot-removable.
The MX240 router supports the RE-S-1300-2048, EE-S-2000-4096, RE-S-1800, and RE-S-X6-64G Routing Engines. See Figure 12 on page 23, Figure 13 on page 24, and
Figure 14 on page 24.
NOTE: If two Routing Engines are installed, they must both be the same
hardware model.

Two small LEDs on the right of the port indicate the connection in use: The LED on the left ndicates speed—green for 1000-Mbps, yellow for 100-Mbps and when the LED is dark, it indicates 10-Mbps speed. The LED on the right indicates activity—flashing green when packets are passing through the port.
Routing Engine Boot Sequence
The Routing Engine boots from the storagemedia in this order: the USB device (if present), then the CompactFlash card, then the hard disk, then the LAN. The disk from which the router boots is called the primary boot device, and the other disk is the alternate boot device.
NOTE: If the routerboots from an alternateboot device, a yellowalarm lights
the LED on the router’s craft interface.
Booting in a RE-S-X6-64G Routing Engine follows this sequence—the USB device, SSD1, SSD2, and LAN. SSD1 is the primary boot device. Boot sequence is tried twice for SSD1 and SSD2.

Figure 16 on page 27 shows the RE-S-1800 Routing Engine.
Each Routing Engine consists of the following components:
CPU—Runs Junos OS to maintain the router's routing tables and routing protocols..
DRAM—Provides storage for the routing and forwarding tables and for other Routing Engine processes.
Chapter 5: Host Subsystem Components and Descriptions
USB port—Provides a removable media interface through which you can install Junos OS manually. Junos OS supports USB version 1.0.
CompactFlash card—Provides primary storage for software images, configurationfiles, and microcode. The CompactFlash card is fixed and is inaccessible from outside the router.
Solid-state Drive (SSD)—Provides secondary storage for log files, memory dumps, and rebooting the system if the CompactFlash card fails.
Interface ports—The AUX, CONSOLE, and ETHERNET provide access to management devices.Each RoutingEngine has one 10/100/1000-Mbps Ethernet port for connecting to a management network, and two asynchronous serial ports—one for connecting to a console and one for connecting to a modem or other auxiliary device.
EEPROM—Stores the serial number of the Routing Engine.
RESET button—Reboots the Routing Engine when pressed.
ONLINE/OFFLINE button—Takes the Routing Engine online or offline when pressed.
Extractor clips—Used for inserting and extracting the Routing Engine.
Captive screws—Secure the Routing Engine in place.
NOTE: For specific information about Routing Engine components (for
example, the amount of DRAM), issue the show chassis routing-engine command.

RE-S-1800 Routing Engine Boot Sequence
The router is shipped with Junos OS preinstalled on the Routing Engine. There are three copies of software:
One copy on the CompactFlash card in the Routing Engine.
One copy on the hard disk in the Routing Engine.
One copy on a USB flash drive that can be inserted into the slot on the Routing Engine faceplate.
The Routing Engine boots from the storagemedia in this order: the USB device (if present), then the CompactFlash card, then the Solid State Disk (SSD), then the LAN. Normally, the router boots from the copy of the software on the CompactFlash card.

MX240 Dense Port Concentrator (DPC) Description
A Dense Port Concentrator (DPC) is optimized for Ethernet density and supports up to 40 Gigabit Ethernet or four 10-Gigabit Ethernet ports (see Figure 19 on page 48). Other combinations of Gigabit Ethernet and 10-Gigabit ports are available in various DPC models. For more information about these models, see the MX Series Interface Module
Reference
The DPC assembly combines packet forwarding and Ethernet interfaces on a single board, with either twoor four 10-Gbps PacketForwarding Engines. Each PacketForwarding Engine consists of one I-chip for Layer 3 processing and one Layer 2 network processor. The DPCs interface with the power supplies and Switch Control Boards (SCBs).
The router has two dedicated line card slots for DPCs, MPCs, or FPCs. DPCs install horizontally in the front of the router (see Figure 19 on page 48). One multifunction slot numbered 1/0 supports either one DPC or one SCB. The DPC slots are numbered 1/0, 1, and 2, bottom to top. A DPC can be installed in any slot on the router that supports DPCs.
You can install any combination of DPC types in the router.
DPCs are hot-removable and hot-insertable. When you install a DPC in an operating router, the Routing Engine downloads the DPC software, the DPC runs its diagnostics, and the Packet Forwarding Engines housed on the DPC are enabled. Forwarding on other DPCs continues uninterrupted during this process.

If a slot is not occupied by a DPC or an SCB, a blank panel must be installed to shield the empty slot and to allow cooling air to circulate properly through the router.
Figure 19 on page 48 shows typical DPCs supported on the MX240 router. For more
information about DPCs, see the MX Series Interface Module Reference.

DPC Components
Each DPC consists of the following components:
DPC cover, which functions as a ground plane and a stiffener.
Fabric interfaces.
Two Gigabit Ethernet interfaces that allow control information, route information, and statistics to be sent between the Routing Engine and the CPU on the DPCs.

Two interfaces from the SCBs that enable the DPCs to be powered on and controlled.
Physical DPC connectors.
Two or four Packet Forwarding Engines.
Midplane connectors and power circuitry.
Processor subsystem, which includes a 1.2-GHz CPU, system controller, and 1 GB of SDRAM.
Online button—Takes the DPC online or offline when pressed.

MX240 DPC Port and Interface Numbering
Each port on a DPC corresponds to a unique interface name in the CLI.
In the syntax of an interface name, a hyphen (-) separates the media type from the DPC number (representedas an FPC in the CLI). The DPC slot number corresponds to the first number in the interface. The second number in the interface corresponds to the logical PIC number. The last number in the interface matches the port number on the DPC. Slashes (/) separate the DPC number from the logical PIC number and port number.
type-fpc/pic/port
type—Media type, which identifies the network device. For example:
ge—Gigabit Ethernet interface
so—SONET/SDH interface
xe—10-Gigabit Ethernet interface
For a complete list of media types, see Interface Naming Overview.
fpc—Slot in which the DPC is installed. On the MX240 router, the DPCs are represented in the CLI as FPC 0 through FPC 2.
pic—Logical PIC on the DPC. The number of logical PICs varies depending on the type of DPC. For example, a:
20-port Gigabit Ethernet DPC has two logical PICs, numbered 0 through 1.
40-port Gigabit Ethernet DPC has four logical PICs, numbered 0 through 3.

MX240 Flexible PIC Concentrator (FPC) Description
A Flexible PIC Concentrator (FPC) occupies two DPC slots on an MX Series router. The DPC slots are numbered 1/0, 1, and 2, bottom to top.One FPC can be installedhorizontally in either slots 1/0 and 1, or slots 1 and 2 on the front of the router (see Figure 23 on page 56). The interface corresponds to the lowest numbered DPC slot for which the FPC is installed.
Figure 22 on page 55 shows typical FPCs supported on the MX240 router.

Chapter 6: Line Card Components and Descriptions
Figure 22: Typical FPCs Supported on the MX240 Router
If a slot is not occupied by a DPC, an FPC, or an SCB, a blank panel must be installed to shield the empty slot and to allow cooling air to circulate properly through the router.
Each FPC supports up to two PICs. On an FPC2, one Packet Forwarding Engine receives incoming packets from the PICs installed on the FPC and forwards them through the switch planes to the appropriate destination port. On an FPC3, two Packet Forwarding Engines receive incoming packets from the PICs installed on the FPC and forwards them through the switch planes to the appropriate destination port. The FPCs interface with the power supplies and SCBs.
FPCs are hot-removable and hot-insertable, as described in “MX240 Component
Redundancy” on page 7. When you install an FPC into a functioning router, the Routing
Engine downloads the FPC software, the FPC runs its diagnostics, and the PICs, housed on the FPC, are enabled. Forwarding continues uninterrupted during this process. When you remove or install an FPC, packet forwarding between other DPCs or FPCs is not affected.

MX240 PIC Description
PICs provide the physical connection to various network media types, receiving incoming packets from the network and transmitting outgoing packets to the network. During this process, each PIC performs framing and line-speed signaling for its media type. Before transmitting outgoing data packets, the PICs encapsulate the packets received from the FPCs. Each PIC is equipped with an ASIC that performs control functions specific to the media type of that PIC.
PICs are hot-removable and hot-insertable. You can install up to two PICs in the slots in each FPC. PICs used in an FPC2 have captive screws at their upper and lower corners. PICs used in a Type 3 FPC have an upper ejector handle and a lower captive screw.

In the syntax of an interface name, a hyphen (-) separates the media type from the FPC number (represented as an FPC in the CLI). The FPC slot number corresponds to the first number in the interface. The second number in the interface corresponds to the PIC number. The last number in the interface matches the port number on the PIC. Slashes (/) separate the FPC slot number from the PIC number and port number:
type-fpc/pic/port
type—Media type, which identifies the network device. For example:
ge—Gigabit Ethernet interface
so—SONET/SDH interface
xe—10-Gigabit Ethernet interface
For a complete list of media types, see Interface Naming Overview.
fpc—Lowest slot number in which the FPC is installed. On the MX240 router, the FPC occupies two line card slots and is represented in the CLI as FPC 0 or FPC 1.
pic—PIC number, 0 or 1 depending on the FPC slot.
For more information on specific PICs, see “PICs Supported by MX240, MX480, and
MX960 Routers” on page 59 in the MX Series Interface Module Reference.
port—Port number.
The FPC installs horizontally in either slots 1/0 and 1, or slots 1 and 2 and accepts up to two PICs.
Figure 24 on page 58 shows a Channelized OC12/STM4 Enhanced IQ (IQE) PIC with SFP

MX240 Modular Interface Card (MIC) Description
Modular Interface Cards (MICs) install into Modular Port Concentrators (MPCs) and provide the physical connections to various network media types. MICs allow different physical interfaces to be supported on a single line card. You can install MICs of different media types on the same router as long as the router supports those MICs.
MICs receive incoming packets from the network and transmit outgoing packets to the network. During this process, each MIC performs framing and high-speed signaling for its media type. Before transmitting outgoing data packets through the MIC interfaces, the MPCs encapsulate the packets received.
MICs are hot-removable and hot-insertable. You can install up to two MICs in the slots in each MPC.
