QFX Series Switches Licensing and Junos Upgrade
This section provides information about licensing and Junos OS Evolved upgrade for QFX Series Switches.
Licensing Information
When you buy any QFX Series Switch, the sales executive guides you with the licensing options available and suggests the most suitable option based on your business requirements. Once you have a license key, see Juniper Licensing User Guide for instructions to activate the license key on your platform.
If your QFX Series Switch encounters an issue and requires a replacement, you need not buy a new license. Instead you can use the same license key on the replaced platform. All this information is available in the Juniper Licensing User Guide.
Your license will be valid for a certain number of years and you may need to renew the license at the end of this period. For license renewal information, see How to renew platform device license?
Upgrade Junos OS Evolved
By default, all the Juniper platforms have built-in Junos OS Evolved software. To upgrade to the latest Junos OS Evolved release that supports your platform device, see Upgrading Junos OS and Upgrading Junos OS Evolved.
