Software Views Overview

Configuring and managing the Juniper Networks JCS1200 control system and connected T Series routers requires three separate control points (views). Each view provides a different access to different parts of the system:

• Through the JCS management module command-line interface (CLI), a JCS administration view enables you to configure and manage JCS1200 platform components, including the JCS switch module and blade (or Routing Engine) parameters.
• Through the Junos OS running on the Routing Engine pair in the T Series router (called the Root System Domain), the RSD administration view enables you to create the Protected System Domains (PSDs) and to manage all the hardware in the T Series chassis.
• Through the Junos OS running on a Routing Engine (or Routing Engine pair) in the JCS chassis, the PSD administration view enables you to configure and manage the hardware that is assigned to the PSD.
