High Availability-Related Features in Junos OS
Related redundancy and reliability features include:
Redundant power supplies, host modules, host subsystems, and forwarding boards. For more information on your specific device, see the Junos Documentation by Product.
Additional link-layer redundancy, including Multiplex Section Protection (MSP) for SDH interfaces, and DLSw redundancy for Ethernet interfaces. For more information, see the Ethernet Interfaces User Guide for Routing Devices.
Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) works with other routing protocols to detect failures rapidly. For more information, see the Understanding How BFD Detects Network Failures.
Redirection of Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) label-switched path (LSP) traffic—Mechanisms such as link protection, node-link protection, and fast reroute recognize link and node failures, allowing MPLS LSPs to select a bypass LSP to circumvent failed links or devices. For more information, see the MPLS Applications User Guide.
