PTX1000 Management Panel
PTX1000 Management Panel
The PTX1000 management panel is found next to the port panel (see Figure 1).

1 — Port panel | 2 — Management panel |
You manage the PTX1000 by using the Junos OS CLI, which is accessible through the console and out-of-band management ports on the management panel. In addition, the management panel has system status LEDs that alert you to minor or major alarms or other issues with the router, external clock synchronization ports, and a USB port to support software installation and recovery. Figure 2 shows the management panel in detail.

1 — RJ-45 (1000BASE-T) management Ethernet port (labeled MGMT). In the Junos OS CLI, this port is identified as em0. | 6 — SFP PTP Ethernet (1000BASE-T) port (labeled ETH). Port reserved for future use. |

PTX1000 Management Port LEDs
There are two management ports on the PTX1000, located on the management panel next to the network ports. Both ports are labeled MGMT. The RJ-45 management port is for 10/100/1000BASE-T connections and the small form-factor pluggable (SFP) management port is for 10/100/1000BASE-T and 1000BASE-X connections.
The RJ-45 port has separate LEDs for status and activity. The SFP port has a LED to indicate both link and activity. Figure 3 shows the location of the LEDs.

1 — Status LED (RJ-45) | 3 — Link activity LED (SFP) |
2 — Link activity LED (RJ-45) |
Table 1 describes the RJ-45 management port LEDs.

PTX1000 Chassis Status LEDs
The PTX1000 has four status LEDs on the management panel of the chassis, next to the network ports (see Figure 4).

1 — Power (PWR) LED | 3 — Minor alarm (MIN) LED |
2 — Major alarm (MAJ) LED | 4 — Status (STS) LED |
Table 3 describes the chassis status LEDs on a PTX1000.
Name |
Color |
State |
Description |
---|---|---|---|
Power (PWR) |
Unlit |
Off |
The PTX1000 is powered off— there is no power to the device. |
Green |
On steadily |
The power system is working correctly. |
|
Amber |
Blinking |
There is a problem with the power system. Power off the PTX1000 by setting the AC power source outlet to the off (O) position or by unplugging the AC power cords. Correct any voltage issues. Power on the PTX1000 and monitor the power supply and fan LEDs to help determine where the error is occurring. If there is a CPU power failure, the PTX1000 does not boot. |
|
Status (STS) LED |
Unlit |
Off |
The PTX1000 is powered off or Junos OS is halted. |
Green |
On steadily |
Junos OS has booted. |
|
Amber |
Blinking |
The PTX1000 detects a fault. |
|
Major alarm (MAJ) LED |
Unlit |
Off |
There are no major alarms. |
Red |
On steadily |
A major hardware fault has occurred, such as a temperature alarm or power failure, and the PTX1000 has halted. |
|
Minor alarm (MIN) LED |
Unlit |
Off |
There are no minor alarms. |
Amber |
On steadily |
A minor alarm has occurred, such as a software error. |
