High Availability

  • GRES-IRB support (PTX10008)—Starting in Junos OS Evolved Release 21.3R1, Graceful Routing Engine Switchover (GRES) is supported, in the existing IRB support, on PTX10008 routers. GRES enables a router with redundant Routing Engines to continue forwarding packets even if one Routing Engine fails. GRES preserves interface and kernel information. Traffic is not interrupted. GRES is supported only on dual Routing Engine platforms. GRES allows you to eliminate network downtime, reduce operating costs, and deliver higher levels of services.

  • NSR support for RSVP-TE dynamic tunnels (PTX10004, PTX10008)—Starting in Junos OS Release 21.3R1, we support NSR for RSVP-TE dynamic tunnels.
