Understanding Virtual Chassis EX4200 Switch Version Compatibility
For Juniper Networks EX4200 Ethernet Switches to be interconnected as a Virtual Chassis configuration, the switches must be running the same software versions. The master checks the hardware version, the Juniper Networks Junos operating system (Junos OS) version, and other component versions running in a switch that is physically interconnected to its Virtual Chassis port (VCP). Different hardware models can be members of the same Virtual Chassis configuration. However, the master will not assign a member ID to a switch that is running a different software version. A switch that is running a different version of software will not be allowed to join the Virtual Chassis configuration.
