M40 Internet Router Overview
The M40 Internet router provides high-speed forwarding performance, packet
processing, and port density for high-growth core IP networks. The M40 router
supports the JUNOS software which provides router configuration and monitoring.
(See Figure 5.)
Figure 5: M40 Router
The M40 router includes the router-specific System Control Board (SCB). The SCB
contains the Internet Processor II application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) and
performs sampling, filtering, and packet forwarding decisions. The SCB processes
exception and control packets, monitors system components, and controls Flexible
PIC Concentrator (FPC) resets.
