  • 1.  Backup System process in EX series Switches

    Posted 09-23-2014 08:59

    Hi Everyone

     

     

    Please let me know if there is possibility to configure backup system process such as ewsd , chassisd , rpd etc so that in case of primary process failure the backup will continue in operation.

     

     

    Thanks

    Hi,

     

    It depends what you want to do.

     

    You can provide redundancy running two (or more) EX switches in a virtual-chassis

    http://www.juniper.net/techpubs/en_US/junos13.2/topics/concept/virtual-chassis-ex4200-components.html

     

    Some EX switches (EX6200, EX8200, EX9200) have redundant routing-engines.

    You are looking for gres, non-stop routing and non-stop bridging:
