  [See Inband Flow Analyzer (IFA) 2.0 Probe for Real-Time Flow Monitoring.]

• Support for performance monitoring and TCA (QFX5130-32CD). Use performance monitoring for QFX5130-32CD switches to measure current and historical metrics. The switch accumulates these metrics into 15-minute and 1-day intervals. You can configure the 15-minute interval length. You can view these metrics by using the show interfaces transport pm command. This approach helps you manage optical transport links more efficiently.

• Support for performance monitoring and TCA (QFX5700). Use performance monitoring for QFX5700 switches to measure current and historical metrics. The switch accumulates these metrics into 15-minute and 1-day intervals. You can configure the 15-minute interval length. You can view these metrics by using the show interfaces transport pm command. This approach helps you manage optical transport links more efficiently. Also, select your product in the Hardware Compatibility Tool to view supported transceivers, optical interfaces, and direct attach copper (DAC) cables for your platform or interface module. See show interfaces transport pm.

• Supported transceivers, optical interfaces, and DAC cables (ACX7020, ACX7100-32C, ACX7100-48L, ACX7348, ACX7509, QFX5130-32CD, QFX5130E-32CD, QFX5130-48C, QFX5130-48CM, QFX5220, QFX5220-32CD, QFX5230-64CD, QFX5240-64QD, QFX5240-64OD, QFX5700, and QFX5700E). Select your product in the Hardware Compatibility Tool to view supported transceivers, optical interfaces, and direct attach copper (DAC) cables for your platform or interface module. We update the HCT and provide the first supported release information when the optical transceiver becomes available.

• Separate firmware installation packages (QFX5130, QFX5220, QFX5230, QFX5240, and QFX5700). You can manage firmware upgrades using standalone firmware installation packages. The names for these packages begin with the prefix jfirmware-junos-evo-install*. You add a firmware package to the system with the request system software add command. After you've added the firmware package to your system, you update the firmware for a hardware component using the request system firmware upgrade command.

  [See Upgrade Firmware on Junos OS Evolved Devices, Junos OS Evolved Installation Packages, request system software add (Junos OS Evolved), request system firmware upgrade (Junos OS Evolved), and show system firmware (Junos OS Evolved).]
