Interoperability supports and CLI enhancements (PTX10008)—You can enable interoperability of the Packet Forwarding Engine (PFE) on a PTX10008 with the JNP10008-SF5 switch interface board (SIB) and PTX10K-LC1301-36DD line card using the set chassis interoperability command. The show chassis interoperability command displays interoperability status. The existing commands for PTX10008 with PTX10K-LC1201-36CD line card will support for PTX10008 with PTX10K-LC1301-36DD line card as well. Following are the other CLI command updates:

• The show chassis fpc slot detail command displays PFE ASIC type.
• On the set chassis fpc command command, you must use pfe-instance instead of pfe.
• The show chassis fpc 5 pfe-instance all command displays pfe-instance in the output.

Optics EM policy support (PTX10008)—The Environment Monitoring (EM) policy now includes optics temperature sensors for PTX10008 routers with PTX10K-LC1301-36DD line card. It ensures efficient thermal management of high-power optical modules. Key functionalities include temperature monitoring integration, automatic shutdown procedures, and CLI commands for managing and configuring the EM policy.

Fabric resiliency support for JNP10008-SF5 SIB (PTX10008)—The JNP10008-SF5 SIB supports fabric resiliency, enhancing fault management for fabric links. You can benefit from features including error detection, logging, alarm generation, SNMP trap sending, LED error indications, and self-healing. Utilize the CLI command show system errors active detail to view logged errors, ensuring comprehensive fault monitoring and increased system reliability.

[See Fabric Resiliency and show system errors active.]

FPC fabric management for JNP10008-SF5 SIB (PTX10008)—You can use CLI command set chassis fpc to manage FPC online and offline states gracefully. Ungraceful FPC removal and insertion do not affect system stability; the system remains responsive, and other online FPCs continue to carry traffic. You can use the set chassis fabric event reachability-fault command to configure options for detecting fabric reachability faults and trigger automatic connectivity restoration. Additionally, use the extended keyword in show chassis fabric fpcs and show chassis fabric sibs commands to view detailed link information within planes, and identify partially enabled planes with the Degraded keyword in show chassis fabric fpcs command.

[See reachability-fault, show chassis fabric fpcs, and show chassis fabric sibs.]

Support for JNP10008-SF5 SIB (PTX10008)—The PTX10008 supports the JNP10008-SF5 Switch Interface Board (SIB), which includes 18 fabric planes. You can use the extended keyword with the show chassis sibs command to view detailed plane information. Utilize the set chassis sib command to gracefully bring SIBs online or offline. Note that mixing SIBs with JNP10008-SF5 SIBs will result in compatibility errors indicated by specific CLI commands:

• The show chassis sibs detail command displays Incompatible with other SIBs in the output.

• The show chassis alarms command displays SIB Incompatible in the output.

• The request chassis sib online command displays Request failed since Fru is incompatible with other slots! in the output.
