What's Changed

Learn about what changed in this release for EX Series switches.

General Routing

  • SSH key options for user account credentials. You can configure key-options key-options option at the set system login user user authentication ssh-rsa|ssh-ecdsa|ssh-ed25519 ssh key] hierarchy level.

    [See login.]

  • Option allow-transients is set by default for the EZ-LAG commit script—The EZ-LAG feature simplifies setting up EVPN multihoming configurations using a set of configuration statements and a commit script. The commit script applies transient configuration changes, which requires the allow-transients system commit scripts option to be set. Now the default system configuration sets the allow-transients option at the EZ-LAG commit script file level, removing the need to set this option manually. In earlier releases where this option isn?t set by default, you must still configure the option explicitly either globally or only for the EZ-LAG commit script.

    [See Easy EVPN LAG Configuration Overview.]

  • Changes to request system recover command syntax (EX Series)—Options (all-members | local | member member-id) have been added to the request system recover command to specify the members for which the system needs to recover data.

    [See request system recover.]

  • Support for 4x10G uplink module—You can use the 4x10G uplink module to support both 10G and 1G transceivers and interfaces. The device automatically detects the presence of a 10G or 1G transceiver and creates a physical interface of the corresponding speed.

    [See Port Speed on EX4400 Switches.]

Network Management and Monitoring

  • Deprecation of shell option—The shell option no longer requires a separate configuration and is now the default behavior. Deprecating the shell option enhances efficiency and simplifies management tasks.

Routing Protocols

  • Extension of traceoptions support for VLANs in IGMP/MLD snooping— The traceoptions option is supported under the [edit routing-instance protocols igmp-snooping vlan] and [edit routing-instance protocols mld-snooping vlan]hierarchy. traceoptions can be enabled for both specific and all vlans.

    [See vlan (IGMP Snooping).]

User Interface and Configuration

  • Access privileges for request support information command (ACX Series, EX Series, MX Series, QFX Series, SRX Series Firewalls, and vSRX Virtual Firewall)—The request support information command is designed to generate system information for troubleshooting and debugging purposes. Users with the specific access privileges maintenance , view , and view-configuration can execute request support information command.

  • Changes to the show system storage command output (ACX Series, EX Series, MX Series, QFX Series, and SRX Series)—We've updated the show system storage command output to include only true (physical) storage and exclude any host/hypervisor level storage. In earlier releases, the output also includes a container/jail storage, which does not have a separate storage of its own.

    [See show system storage.]

  • Option to view combined disk space usage statistics for all configuration databases (ACX Series, EX Series, MX Series, QFX Series, SRX Series, and vSRX)—The show system configuration database usage command provides the merge option. When you include the merge option, the command output displays combined disk space usage statistics for all configuration databases, including the static configuration database and all ephemeral configuration database instances.

    [See show system configuration database usage.]
