The Roung and Control Board (RCB) is an integrated board and a single eld-replaceable unit (FRU)
that provides Roung Engine and Control Board (CB) funconality. The Roung Engine performs all
route-processing funcons, whereas the CB performs chassis control and management plane
funconality. The RCB provides control plane funcons. You can install one or two RCBs on the router.
Each RCB funcons as a unit.
The MX10004 Roung and Control Board (RCB) is responsible for system management in an MX10004
router (see Figure 26 on page 57). The chassis can run with one or two RCBs. The base conguraon
ships with one RCB, while a redundant conguraon ships with two RCBs. When two RCBs are installed,
one funcons as the primary and the second as a backup. If the primary RCB is removed, the backup
becomes the primary if graceful Roung Engine switchover (GRES) is congured.
MX10004 supports the following Roung Engines:
• JNP10K-RE1
