Additional Features

We've extended support for the following features to these platforms:

  • IGMP snooping and MLD snooping (PTX10008 with the PTX10K-LC1301-36QD line card)

    [See IGMP Snooping Overview and Understanding MLD Snooping.]

  • NIST purge method for media sanitization (ACX7024, ACX7024X, ACX7100-32C, ACX7332, PTX10001-36MR, PTX10002-36QDD, PTX10003, PTX10008, QFX5700, and QFX5700E). We've extended support for NIST media sanitization for SATA hard disk drives to include:

    • Cryptographic scramble and block erase priorities for the purge method.

    • Enhanced secure erase priority for the clear method.

    [See NIST Special Publication 800-88, Guidelines for Media Sanitization and request system zeroize.]

  • OISM for IPv4 multicast traffic in EVPN-VXLAN fabrics (PTX10008 with the PTX10K-LC1301-36QD line card). Support for optimized intersubnet multicast (OISM) on this device includes:

    • Regular OISM mode only—the original symmetric bridge domains model, also called the bridge domains everywhere (BDE) model

    • MAC-VRF EVPN instances with vlan-based or vlan-aware service types only

    • IPv4 multicast traffic with IGMPv2, IGMPv3, and IGMP snooping

    • Server leaf, border leaf, or lean spine OISM device roles

    • External multicast source and receiver communication using any of the following methods:

      • Classic Layer 3 (L3) interfaces

      • EVPN multicast VLAN (M-VLAN) integrated routing and bridging (IRB) interfaces

      • Non-EVPN IRB interfaces

    [See Optimized Intersubnet Multicast in EVPN Networks.]

  • Support for EVPN-VPWS with transport class tunnels (PTX10001-36MR, PTX10002-36QDD, PTX10004, PTX10008, and PTX10016)

    [See Configuring EVPN over Transport Class Tunnels and Example: Configuring EVPN-VPWS over Transport Class Tunnels.]

  • Support for EVPN-VXLAN Type 2 and Type 5 stitching (PTX10002-36QDD)

    [See interconnect.]

  • Support for VPLS (PTX10008). You can now configure VPLS on the PTX10008 router running Junos OS Evolved.

    Keep in mind the following when you are configuring the PTX10008 router.

    • To configure VPLS, configure the instance-type virtual-switch statement at the [edit routing-instances routing-instance-name] hierarchy level.

    • You must enable control-word at the [edit routing-instances routing-instance-name protocols vpls] hierarchy level.

    • We support single bridge domains in this release. You must configure the service-type single statement at the [edit routing-instances routing-instance-name vpls] hierarchy level.

    • CE interfaces do not support encapsulation of ethernet-vpls and vlan-vpls.

    • To display VPLS MAC address information, use the show ethernet-switching table command.

    • On the PTX10008 router with the JNP10K-LC1301 line card installed, enable interoperability support for VPLS by using the set chassis interoperability express5-enhanced command.

    We support the following VPLS features:

  • Support for internet-options commands (ACX7100-32C, ACX7100-48L, ACX7509, PTX10001-36MR|PTX10003, PTX10004, PTX10008, PTX10016. QFX5130-32CD, QFX5130-48C, QFX5130-48CM, QFX5700, and QFX5220). We have added additional traffic management command options to the [set system internet-options] hierarchy:

    • no-tcp-reset drop-all-tcp

    • no-tcp-reset drop-tcp-with-syn-only

    • ipv6-path-mtu-discovery-timeout minutes

    [See internet-options.]

  • Two-Way Active Measurement Protocol (TWAMP) monitoring service (RFC5357) hardware timestamp support (PTX10002-36QDD, PTX10004, PTX10008, and PTX10016)

    [See the offload-type inline-timestamping option of the test-session statement.]

  • Specify the install package name as a URL in the request system software add command (ACX Series, PTX Series, and QFX Series)

    [See request system software add (Junos OS Evolved).]

  • Support for displaying load balancing decision result for Layer 3 (L3) unicast traffic (PTX10002-36QDD)

    [See show forwarding-options load-balance.]

  • Support for file-system encryption with Trusted Platform Module (TPM 2.0) (ACX7100-32C, ACX7100-48L, and PTX10002-36QDD)

    [See Encryption with Trusted Platform Module.]

  • Support for performance monitoring and TCA (PTX10002-36QDD). We support performance monitoring for the QDD-400G-ZR optical transceiver modules. The current and historical performance monitoring metrics are accumulated into 15-minute and 1-day interval bins. You can view the metrics by using the show interfaces transport pm command and can manage optical transport link efficiently.

    [See show interfaces transport pm.]

  • Support for displaying load balancing decision result for L3 unicast traffic (PTX10002-36QDD)

    [See show forwarding-options load-balance.]

  • Support for firmware upgrade on optics (PTX10001-36MR, PTX10004, PTX10008, and PTX10016)

    [See request system firmware upgrade (Junos OS Evolved), show system firmware (Junos OS Evolved), Upgrading Firmware on the CMIS Optics Module, and request system firmware switch optics (Junos OS Evolved).]

  • Enhanced Address Detection for Reliable Connectivity (PTX Series)—We’ve improved our network address detection process to deliver more reliable connectivity and uninterrupted performance. This update prevents disruptions caused by duplicate address detection (DAD) failures under rare network conditions. By integrating advanced algorithms and unique identifiers, we reduce false detections and ensure smooth data flow, keeping your network running seamlessly.
