Documentation and Release Notes
To obtain the most current version of all Juniper Networks®technical documentation, see the product
documentation page on the Juniper Networks website at https://www.juniper.net/documentation/.
If the information in the latest release notes differs from the information in the documentation, follow the
product Release Notes.
Juniper Networks Books publishes books by Juniper Networks engineers and subject matter experts.
These books go beyond the technical documentation to explore the nuances of network architecture,
deployment, and administration. The current list can be viewed at https://www.juniper.net/books.
Using the Examples in This Manual
If you want to use the examples in this manual, you can use the load merge or the load merge relative
command. These commands cause the software to merge the incoming configuration into the current
candidate configuration. The example does not become active until you commit the candidate configuration.
If the example configuration contains the top level of the hierarchy (or multiple hierarchies), the example
is a full example. In this case, use the load merge command.
If the example configuration does not start at the top level of the hierarchy, the example is a snippet. In
this case, use the load merge relative command. These procedures are described in the following sections.
Merging a Full Example
To merge a full example, follow these steps:
1. From the HTML or PDF version of the manual, copy a configuration example into a text file, save the
file with a name, and copy the file to a directory on your routing platform.
For example, copy the following configuration to a file and name the file ex-script.conf. Copy the
ex-script.conf file to the /var/tmp directory on your routing platform.
system {
scripts {
commit {
file ex-script.xsl;
}
}
}
interfaces {
fxp0 {
disable;
unit 0 {
family inet {
address 10.0.0.1/24;
}
}
}
}
xiii
2. Merge the contents of the file into your routing platform configuration by issuing the load merge
configuration mode command:
[edit]
user@host# load merge /var/tmp/ex-script.conf
load complete
Merging a Snippet
To merge a snippet, follow these steps:
1. From the HTML or PDF version of the manual, copy a configuration snippet into a text file, save the
file with a name, and copy the file to a directory on your routing platform.
For example, copy the following snippet to a file and name the file ex-script-snippet.conf. Copy the
ex-script-snippet.conf file to the /var/tmp directory on your routing platform.
commit {
file ex-script-snippet.xsl; }
2. Move to the hierarchy level that is relevant for this snippet by issuing the following configuration mode
command:
[edit]
user@host# edit system scripts
[edit system scripts]
xiv
3. Merge the contents of the file into your routing platform configuration by issuing the load merge
relative configuration mode command:
[edit system scripts]
user@host# load merge relative /var/tmp/ex-script-snippet.conf
load complete
For more information about the load command, see CLI Explorer.

MX5, MX10, MX40, and MX80 Hardware Overview | 21
The Juniper Networks MX5, MX10, MX40, and MX80 Universal Routing Platforms are Ethernet-optimized
edge routers that provide both switching and carrier-class Ethernet routing. The MX5, MX10, MX40, and
MX80 routers run Junos operating system (Junos OS), enabling a wide range of business and residential
applications and services, including high-speed transport and virtual private network (VPN) services,
next-generation broadband multiplay services, and high-volume Internet data center internetworking.
Each router provides full duplex, high-density Ethernet interfaces and high- capacity switching throughput
and uses the Junos Trio chipset for increased scalability of L2/L3 packet forwarding, buffering, and queuing.
Benefits of the MX5, MX10, MX40, and MX80 Router
System Capacity—The MX80, MX40, MX10, and MX5 routers are software upgradeable from 20 Gbps
•
to 80 Gbps. These platforms have up to four Modular Interface Card (MIC) slots and two fixed 10-Gigabit
Ethernet interfaces for connecting to the network.
Always-on infrastructure base—MX Series routers ensure network and service availability with a broad
•
set of multilayered physical, logical, and protocol-level resiliency aspects. Junos OS Virtual Chassis
technology on MX Series routers supports chassis-level redundancy and enables you to manage two
routers as a single element. Multichassis link aggregation group (MC-LAG) implementation supports
stateful chassis, card, and port redundancy.
Application-Aware Networking—On MX Series routers you can use deep packet inspection to detect

applications, and by using the user-defined policies, you can determine traffic treatment for each
application. This feature enables highly customized and differentiated services at scale.
Programmable Chipset—The chipset implemented in the MX Series routers has a programmable
•
forwarding data structure that allows fast microcode changes in the hardware itself, and a programmable
lookup engine that allows inline service processing. the chip’s programmable QoS engine supports coarse
and fine-grained queuing to address the requirements of core, edge, and aggregation use cases.
Junos Continuity and Unified In-Service Software Upgrade (Unified ISSU)—With the Junos continuity
•
plug-in package, you can perform a smooth upgrade when new hardware is installed in your MX Series
router.
Unified in-service software upgrade (unified ISSU) enables software upgrades and changes without
disrupting network traffic.
Junos Telemetry Interface—Using the Junos telemetry interface data, you can stream component-level
•
data to monitor, analyze, and enhance the performance of the network. Analytics derived from this
streaming telemetry can identify current and trending congestion, resource utilization, traffic volume,
and buffer occupancy.
21
Integrated Hardware-Based Timing—You do not need to use external clocks because MX Series routers
•
support highly scalable and reliable hardware-based timing, including Synchronous Ethernet for frequency,
and the Precision Time Protocol (PTP) for frequency and phase synchronization. Synchronous Ethernet
and PTP can be combined in a hybrid mode to achieve a high level of frequency (10 ppb) and phase (<1.5
uS) accuracy.
MX5, MX10, MX40, and MX80 Hardware Overview
The routers each contain a built-in Routing Engine and one Packet Forwarding Engine. The Packet
Forwarding Engine has two “pseudo” Flexible PIC Concentrators (FPC 0 and FPC1). Because there is no
switching fabric, the single Packet Forwarding Engine takes care of both ingress and egress packet
forwarding.
The routers are compact and two 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.
For scalable configuration options you can install a variety of Modular Interface Cards (MICs) in the two
front slots of the router, and the optional Multiservices MIC can be installed in the rear slot. Software
licenses allow you to upgrade from one router to another without a hardware upgrade. The ports are
restricted based on the router’s associated license as follows:
