Roadmap to Configuring a Routing Matrix
When you
configure the Routing Matrix, you should do some or all of the following:
- You must connect to the Routing Engines of the routing
matrix. For information on how to do this, see Connecting to a Routing Matrix.
- You must configure groups that support the components
of the routing matrix. Groups offer a simple way to establish hostnames,
management interfaces, and default routes. For more information on
how to do this, see Configuring Groups to Support Routing Matrix Components.
- You can adjust the configuration to accommodate the number
of FPCs installed on the routing matrix. For information on FPC numbering,
see Routing Matrix FPC Numbering. For information on configuring the routing matrix to accommodate
FPCs, see Adjusting the Configuration to Accommodate Increased FPC Numbers.
- You can configure protocols and other features on the
routing matrix. Other than the expanded range of FPC numbers for interfaces
and the requirement to create groups for the T640 routing nodes, you
can configure protocols in exactly the same manner as you would for
other Juniper Networks routing platforms.
- For T640 routing nodes, you can configure PIC-specific
features, create an alarm for nodes that do not come online, and take
a node offline. For more information, see Option: Configuring Chassis-Specific Statements.
- As with every JUNOS routing platform, you must commit
configurations on the routing matrix before they take effect. For
information on how to do this, see Committing Configurations on a Routing Matrix.
- When you upgrade the software on the routing matrix, the
new image is loaded on the TX Matrix and distributed to all T640 routing
nodes. For more information, see Upgrading the Software for a Routing Matrix.
- For information about managing system processes in the
routing matrix, see Managing System Processes in the Routing Matrix.
- For information about rebooting the routing matrix or
halting routing matrix software components, see Rebooting and Halting Routing Matrix Components.
- For information about enabling or temporarily disabling
routing matrix hardware components, see Enabling and Disabling Specific Routing Matrix Hardware Components.
- For information about managing files on the routing matrix,
see Managing Files on Routing Engines in a Routing Matrix.
- For information about commonly used commands for the routing
matrix, see Miscellaneous Commands for a Routing Matrix.
