You can manage EX9214 switches by using the same interfaces that you use for managing other devices
running the Juniper Networks Junos operang system (Junos OS)—the CLI, the Network and Security
Manager (NSM), and Junos Space.
Benets of the EX9214 Switch
Simplied network architecture—EX9214 switches deliver a simple, secure, virtualized network
environment that increases business agility. They are ideal for simplifying campus, data center, and
combined campus and data center network environments by collapsing network layers. In a mulchassis
link aggregaon (MC-LAG) conguraon in the campus, you can use EX9214 switches to eliminate
Spanning Tree Protocol (STP); they collapse the core and aggregaon layers, thereby simplifying the
network architecture and network operaons. In a data center, you can use EX9204 switches to collapse
core and aggregaon layers. In combined campus and data center environments, EX9214 switches
consolidate network layers to simplify the network architecture and operaons.
MACsec support—EX9200-40F-M and EX9200-40XS line cards and EX9200-20F-MIC for EX9200-
MPC line card supports IEEE 802.1AE MACsec with AES-256 bit encrypon, ensuring link-layer data
condenality, data integrity, and data origin authencaon.

The Juniper Networks EX Series Ethernet Switches run Junos OS, which provides Layer 2 and Layer 3
switching, roung, and security services.
Chassis Physical Specicaons
The EX9214 switch is 16 rack units (16 U) in size. Three EX9214 switches can t in a standard 48 U
rack. Each EX9214 switch is designed to opmize rack space and cabling.
