MX960 Router Overview

The MX960 3D Universal EdgeRouter is an Ethernet-optimized edge router that provides both switching and carrier-class Ethernet routing. The MX960 router enables a wide rangeof business and residential applicationsand services, including high-speed transport and VPN services, next-generation broadband multiplay services, high-speed Internet and data center internetworking.

The MX960 chassis provides redundancy and resiliency. The hardware system is fully redundant, including power supplies, fan trays, Routing Engines, and Switch Control Boards.

The MX960 router is 16 rack units (U) tall. Three routers can be stacked in a single floor-to-ceilingrack, for increased port density per unit of floorspace. The router provides 14 slots that can be populated with 11 or 12 Dense Port Concentrators (DPCs) or Modular Port Concentrators (MPCs), six Flexible PIC Concentrators (FPCs), and two Switch Control Boards (SCBs) in nonredundant fabric configurations.

Fully populated, the MX960 router provides an aggregate switch fabric capacity of up to 10.56 Tbps, with line-rate throughput on 264 10-Gigabit Ethernet ports, 22 100-Gigabit Ethernet and 44 10-Gigabit Ethernet ports and 66 40-Gigabit Ethernet ports.

Table 3 on page 3 lists the MX960 router capacity.

MX960 3D Universal Edge Router Hardware Guide

Several types of DPCs are available. Each DPC includes either two or four Packet Forwarding Engines. Each Packet Forwarding Engine enables a throughput of 10 Gbps.

Up to two PICs can be installed in each FPC. Fully populated, the MX960 supports up to 12 PICs.

Up to two Modular InterfaceCards (MICs) can be installed in each MPC. Fully populated, the MX960 supports up to 24 MICs.

MPCs support fixed interfaces or up to two Modular Interface Cards (MICs) that can be installed in each MPC. Fully populated, the MX960 supports up to 22 MICs.

For a list of the supported DPCs, FPCs, MPCs, MICs, and PICs, see the MX Series Interface

Module Reference.

Three SCBs are available for the MX960 routers—the SCB, the SCBE, and the SCBE2.

Table 4 on page 4 lists the MX960 SCBs.

Outstanding Issues with the MX960 Router

This topic lists outstanding hardware issues with the MX960 3D Universal Edge router. For information about software issues, see the Junos OS Release Notes.

•

Each MX960 high capacity AC power supply has an input mode switch, covered by a small metalplate.The input mode switch tells the system the number of feeds it should expect When the input mode switch is set to '0' (zero): expect one feed, an alarm will be generated if two are providing power. When the input mode swtich is set to '1' (one): expect two feeds, an alarm will be generated if less than two feeds are active. The default setting is 1.

In Junos OS Releases 10.1R2 and 10.2R1. there are scenarios in which both the supply and the system will generate a warning or alarm, and there is at least one scenario where the supply is OK and the system will still give a warning message. [PR530872]

Page 36

MX960 3D Universal Edge Router Hardware Guide

The power supply has a PEM FAIL and OK LED; the failure LED will light up in this scenario:

•

Supply is expecting two feeds (input mode switch = 1) but receiving only one active feed

The system will generate an alarm in the following scenarios:

•

Supply is expecting two feeds (input mode switch = 1) but receiving only one active feed.

•

Supply is expecting one feed (input mode switch = 0) but receiving two active feeds .

NOTE:

•

All supplies should have the same amount of feeds activated.

The correct usage of the feed selector is required in order to get to the desired capacity of the supplies.

•

Juniper Networks strongly recommends that you install Junos OS Release 8.2R2 or later before deploying the MX960 router into service.

•

Junos OS Release 8.2R1 does not allow you to complete an install from the USB dongle. Use Junos OS Release 8.2R2 instead. [PR/98563]

•

In Junos OS Release 8.2R1, a condition can exist where both fan trays are shut down by the system, but the system continues to operate. This can potentially result in serious overheating and damage to the DPCs. Use Junos OS Release 8.2R2 instead. [PR/94692] [PR/289154]

•

The XFP cages and optics on the MX960 router are industry standard parts which 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]

•

Althoughthe MX960router can support anycombination of 11 DPCsand the redundant third SCB, the power supply cannot support all 12 DPCs if an Enhanced Queuing DPC is inserted into any slot of a fully loaded chassis. The Enhanced Queuing DPCs exhibit the following behavior:

•

When you insert an Enhanced Queuing DPC into slot 6 of a powered-on MX960 router, the DPC will not power on.

•

When you insert a DPC into slot 6 of an MX960 router containing an Enhanced Queuing DPC in any slot, the DPC will not power on.

•

When you insert an Enhanced Queuing DPC into any slot of an MX960 router containing a DPC already powered on in slot 6, the Enhanced Queuing DPC will not power on.

Page 37

Chapter 2: MX960 Release Notes

These scenarios raise an FPC misconfiguration red alarm due to the DPC's high power consumption. To clear the alarm, perform one of the following actions:

•

To temporarily take the DPC offline, use the request chassis fpc slot slot-number

offline command from the CLI.

NOTE: The router does not preserve the state after a reboot.

•

To take the DPC offline and preserve the state after a reboot, use the set chassis fpc

slot-number power off command from configuration mode.

•

Remove the powered-off DPC from the MX960 router.

Juniper Networks also recommends the following best practices:

•

Use all other slots before using slot 6.

•

Remove any unused DPCs plugged into the MX960 chassis.

MX960 Chassis Description

The router chassis is a rigid sheet metal structure that houses all the other router components (see Figure 1 on page 10, Figure 2 on page 11, and Figure 3 on page 11). The chassis installs in many types of racks, including 800-mm deep (or larger) enclosed cabinets, standard 19-in. equipment racks, or telco open-frame racks. Two types of chassis are available for the MX960 router:

•

The standard chassis measures 27.75 in. (70.49 cm) high, 17.37 in. (44.11 cm) wide (excluding the mounting flanges and brackets), and 23.0 in. (58.42 cm) deep (from the front-mounting flanges to the rear of the chassis). The standard cable manager extends the depth to 28.0 in. (71.1 cm). Up to three routers can be installed in a 48-U rack if the rack can handle their combined weight, which can be greater than 1,050 lb (476.3 kg).

NOTE: The chassis depth with the high-capacity AC power supply is 30.6"

and the depth with high-capacity DC power supply is 32.8".

•

The chassis with the extended cable manager installed measures 36.5 in. (92.7 cm) high, 17.37 in. (44.11 cm) wide, and approximately 29.00 in. (73.7 cm) deep (from the front-mounting flanges to the rear of the extended cable manager). Up to two routers with the extended cable manager can be installed in a 48-U rack if the rack can handle their combined weight, which can be greater than 748 lb (339.28 kg).

MX960 Component Redundancy

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—The host subsystem consists of a Routing Engine and 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.

•

Power supplies—In the AC configuration with normal capacity AC power supplies, a minimum of three power supplies is required to supply power to a fully configured router. All AC power supplies share the load evenly. The addition of a fourth power supply provides full power redundancy. If one power supply fails in a redundant configuration, the three remaining power supplies provide full power. In the DC configuration and the AC configuration with high capacity power supplies, two power supplies are required to supply power to a fully configured router. One power supply supports approximately half of the components in the router, and the other power supply supports the remaining components. The addition of two power supplies provides full power redundancy. If one or two power supplies fail, the remaining power supplies can provide full power to the router.

•

Cooling system—The cooling system has redundant components, which are controlled by the host subsystem. If one of the fans fails, the host subsystem increasesthe speed of the remaining fans to provide sufficient cooling for the router indefinitely.

MX960 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 located to 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.

MX960 Cooling System Description

The cooling system consists of the following components:

•

Upper front fan tray

•

Lower front fan tray

•

Front air filter

The cooling system components work together to keep all router components within the acceptable temperature range (see Figure 9 on page 24, Figure 10 on page 24,

Figure 11 on page 24, and Figure 12 on page 24). The router has two fan trays located in

the front of the router that install horizontally above and below the card cage. Each normal-capacity fan tray contains six fans. High-capacity fan trays that contain twelve fans can be installedin the upper and lower fan tray slots. The fan traysare hot-insertable and hot-removable.

The MX960 requires high-capacity fan trays to satisfy cooling requirements for high-density DPCs and MPCs. When replacing normal-capacity fan trays with high-capacity fan trays, you must replace them in both the upper and lower fan trays. Additionally, you must replace the front air filter.

NOTE: If you install high-capacity fan trays, you must also install

high-capacity power supplies. Combinations of normal-capacity and high-capacity power supplies and fan trays are not supported.

There is a single air intake in the front of the router. Air is pushed up through the card cage and through the upper fan tray where it is exhausted out the upper rear of the system through the larger air exhaust shown in Figure 9 on page 24.

Page 54

MX960 3D Universal Edge Router Hardware Guide

At the bottom rear of the chassis, there is an air intake for power supply cooling. Air flows over the power supplies and is exhausted out the rear of the chassis through the smaller air exhaust below the main exhaust.

Figure 9: 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 RoutingEngine shuts down the systemby disabling output power from each PEM.

MX960 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.

MX960 Midplane Description

The midplane is located toward the rear of the chassis and forms the rear of the card cage (see Figure 15 on page 29). 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.

•

RE-S-X6-64G-LT

NOTE: The Routing Engine is equipped with limited encryption support

only.

Routing Engine Function

The Routing Engine runs the Junos OS. Softwareprocessesthat 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.

Routing Engine Slots

You can install one or two Routing Engines in the router. Each Routing Engine must be installed directly into an SCB. A USB port on the Routing Engine accepts a USB memory device that allows you to load Junos OS. The Routing Engines install into the front of the chassis in vertical slots directly into the SCBs labeled 0 and 1. If two Routing Engines are installed, one functions as the master and the other acts as the backup. If the master RoutingEngine fails or is removed and the backup is configured appropriately,the backup takes over as the master.

On the MX960 router, a Routing Engine installed in SCB slot 2/6 receives no power and supplies no additional routing functions. If no SCB is installed in slot 2/6, install a blank panel in the slot.

NOTE: If two Routing Engines are installed, they must both be the same

hardware model.

Routing Engine Interface Ports

Three ports, located on the right side of the routing engine, connect the Routing Engine to one or more external devices on which system administrators can issue Junos OS command-line interface (CLI) commands to manage the router.

The ports with the indicated labels function as follows:

Page 61

Chapter 5: Host Subsystem Components and Descriptions

•

AUX—Connects the Routing Engine to a laptop, modem, or other auxiliary device

through a serial cable with an RJ-45 connector.

•

CONSOLE—Connects the Routing Engine to a system console through a serial cable

with an RJ-45 connector.

•

ETHERNET or MGMT—Connects the Routing Engine through an Ethernet connection

to a management LAN (or any other device that plugs into an Ethernet connection) forout-of-band management. The port usesan autosensing RJ-45 connectorto support 10-Mbps or 100-Mbps connections. Two small LEDs on the right of the port indicate the connection in use: the LED flashes yellow or green for a 10-Mbps or 100-Mbps connection, and the LED is light green when traffic is passing through the port.

MX960 3D Universal Edge Router Hardware Guide

Figure 20: Typical DPCs Supported by the Router

The DPC assembly combines packet forwarding and Ethernet interfaces on a single board,with either twoor four 10-Gbps PacketForwarding Engines. Each Packet Forwarding 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 (CBs).

The router has 11 dedicated DPC slots. DPCs install vertically in the front of the router (see Figure 21 on page 55). The dedicated DPC slots are numbered 0 though 5, and 7 though 11, left to right. An additional multifunction slot labeled 2/6 supports either an SCB or a DPC. A DPC can be installed in any slot that supports DPCs. You can install any combination of DPC types in the router.

If a slot is not occupied by a DPC, a DPC blank panel must be installed to shield the empty slot and to allow cooling air to circulate properly through 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.

Figure 24: Typical FPCs Supported on the MX960 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 forward 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 “MX960 Component

Redundancy” on page 12. 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.

FPC Components

Each FPC consists of the following components:

•

FPC card carrier, which includes two PIC slots

•

Up to two Packet Forwarding Engines, each consisting of one I-chip for Layer 3 processing and one Layer 2 network processor

•

Midplane connectors and power circuitry

•

Processor subsystem (PMB), which includes a 1.2-GHz CPU, system controller, 1 GB of SDRAM, and two Gigabit Ethernet interfaces

MX960 PIC Description

PICs provide the physicalconnection 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. Up to two PICs can be installed in the slots in each FPC. Up to six FPCs can be installed in an MX960 router. 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.

MX960 Application Services Modular Line Card Description

The Application Services Modular Line Card (AS MLC) is an X86-based card for MX960, MX480, and MX240 routers to deliver integrated application service solutions. The first application that network operators can take advantage of is the Junos Content Encore system, a high-throughput, solid state storage platform for media rich content delivery. Additionally, the AS MLC can serve as the platform for Juniper Networks JunosV App Engine, powering a host of network applications directly embedded into your MX Series 3D Universal Edge Routers.

The AS MLC is modular and decouples CPU and storage in individual field-upgradeable units. The AS MLCs are designed to enable application throughput up to 50 Gbps and a storage capacity of 400 gigabytes (GB) of NAND Flash.

Figure 26: Application Services Modular Line Card (AS MLC)

MX960 AS MLC Function

The AS MLC provides modular processing and modular storage. Installedon the AS MLC, the Junos Content Encore system operates as a caching application, in either HTTP reverse proxy mode or HTTP transparent proxy mode, to manage client requests for content and the distribution of the content to clients from origin servers. In the future, the AS MLC will run other Juniper Networks router services and applications, and serve as a virtualized platform for third-party applications. The AS MLC provides Ethernet switching and high-speed fabric interface to MX routers. Graceful Routing Engine switchover is also supported on the AS MLC.

Integrated with application forwarding on MX Series routers, the AS MLC provides increased service flexibility with reduced power and space requirements for the network infrastructure.

The AS MLC Modular Carrier Card (AS MCC), the carrier card of the AS MLC, fits vertically in the front of the MX960 router (see Figure 27 on page 71).
