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;
}
}
}
}
xii
2. Merge the contents of the file into your routing platform configuration by issuing the load merge
configuration mode command:
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]
xiii
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

top-of-rack and aggregation switches for enterprise multicloud deployments. Featuring Layer 3 gateway
capabilities for routing between virtualized and bare-metal servers, the QFX5120 is designed for extremely
agile data centers that demand support for overlay and underlay network architectures. The QFX5120
includes native 25-Gigabit Ethernet (fiber only) and 100-Gigabit Ethernet fixed-configuration options with
rich L2, L3, Ethernet VPN (EVPN), and MPLS features. In addition to a high-throughput Packet Forwarding
Engine (PFE), the performance of the QFX5120 control plane is with a powerful 2.2 GHz quad-core Intel
CPU with 16 GB of memory and 64 GB SSD storage.
The QFX5120 line of switches includes two compact, 1-U platforms that provide wire-speed packet
performance, very low latency, and a rich set of Junos OS features. The native 25-GbE with 100-GbE
uplink ports on QFX5120-48Y, combined with 32 ports of 100-GbE on the 1-Unit QFX5120-32C, also
make the QFX5120 switch ideally suited for spine-and-leaf network deployments.
Two variants of the QFX5120 switches are available— 32-port and 48-port switches, with AC and DC
power supplies and with different airflow directions. The QFX5120-48Y switch offers two models featuring
AC power supplies with front-to-back or back-to-front airflow, and two models featuring DC power supplies
with front-to-back or back-to-front airflow. The QFX5120-32C switch offers two models featuring AC
power supplies with front-to-back or back-to-front airflow.
NOTE: The QFX5120-32C switch currently supports only AC power supply.
Benefits of the QFX5120 Switch
EVPN-VXLAN campus architecture—The QFX5120 switch extends EVPN-VXLAN beyond the data center,
thus providing customers the building blocks for an enterprise-wide fabric. The EVPN-VXLAN protocol is
suitable for campus architectures because it provides Layer 3 transport with Layer 2 capabilities that allow
enterprises to evolve, while also taking into consideration legacy applications. QFX5120 also offers core
aggregation capabilities aimed at enterprises with campus networks that want a compact and highly scalable
solution.
22
Industry-leading 25-Gbps and 100-Gbps wire speeds: The QFX5120 Switch offers industry-leading high
density 25-Gbps and 100-Gbps wire speeds that support 48 ports at 100-Gbps or 48 ports at 25-Gbps,
and 8 100-Gbps uplink ports.
Common data center protocols: The QFX5120 also uses data center network protocols. The network
protocols used in the QFX5120 are the Ethernet VPN (EVPN) and the Virtual Extensible LAN (VXLAN).
Engineers typically use it with the Border Gateway Protocol and the VXLAN encapsulation protocol which
creates an overlay network on an existing Layer 3 infrastructure. As a result, the same engineering team
can manage the data center and the campus.
QFX5120 Hardware
The QFX5120 delivers low-latency, native 25-GbE, rich Layer 2 and Layer 3 features, VXLAN overlay
support, and 100GbE uplinks, making it the ideal switch for access and top-of-rack deployments.
Two variants of QFX5120 switches are available, QFX5120-32C and QFX5120-48Y.

Juniper Networks QFX Series Ethernet Switches run Junos OS™ operating system (Junos OS), which
provides Layer 2 and Layer 3 switching, routing, and security services.
QFX5120 Power System
QFX5120-48Y switches support two AC or DC power supplies with different airflow directions. Power
supplies for the QFX5120 switch are fully redundant, load-sharing, and hot-removable and hot-insertable
FRUs. The QFX5120 switch models are shipped with two power supplies pre-installed in the rear panel
of the chassis.
CAUTION: Do not mix:
AC and DC power supplies in the same chassis.
•
Power supplies with different airflow labels (AIR IN (AFI) and AIR OUT (AFO)) in the
•
same chassis.
Power supplies and fan modules with different airflow labels (AIR IN (AFI) and AIR
•
OUT (AFO)) in the same chassis.
CAUTION: Verify that the airflow direction on the power supply handle matches the
direction of airflow in the chassis. Ensure that each power supply you install in the chassis
has the same airflow direction. If you install power supplies with two different airflow
directions, Junos OS raises an alarm. If you need to convert the airflow pattern on a
chassis, you must replace all the fans and power supplies at one time to use the new
direction.
QFX5120 Switch Models
The QFX5120 switch is available with 32 or 48 ports and support AC and DC power supplies depending
on the switch model. All models of the QFX5120 ship with two power supplies and five fans installed by
default.Table 4 on page 28 lists the components shipped with QFX5120 switch models.

Identifying QFX5120 Switch Models
Purpose
Identify the model number of your QFX5120 switch.
Action
Check the value of the FRU Model Number field in the Routing Engine section in the output of the show
The model number of your switch is one of the following:
QFX5120-32C-AFO
•
QFX5120-32C-AFI
•
QFX5120-48Y-AFO2
•
QFX5120-48Y-AFI2
•
QFX5120-48Y-DC-AFO2
•
QFX5120-48Y-DC-AFI2
•
In the sample output, the switch model is QFX5120-48Y-AFO2.
Meaning
In QFX5120 switch model numbers:
The 48Y in the model number indicates that the number of network ports on the switch:
•
AFI indicates that the switch is shipped with two fan modules and a power supply, each bearing an AIR
•
IN (AFI) label. Switches that do not have AFI in their model numbers ship with two fan modules and a
power supply, each bearing an AIR OUT (AFO) label.
The labels on the fan modules and the power supplies indicate the direction of airflow they provide
within the chassis when installed in the switch. AIR IN (AFI) labels indicate back-to-front airflow, and
AIR OUT (AFO) labels indicate front-to-back airflow.
The DC in the model number indicates that the switch model works on DC power supply. Switches that
•
do not have DC in their model numbers work on AC power supply.
