Preparing for the Upgrade
NOTE: Do not make other changes to the CLI during the entire upgrade
process. You can ensure that you will not make such changes by opening a
telnet session to the masterRE CLI operationalmode and issuing the configure
exclusive command. This command locks the configuration procedure.
TIP: To prevent traffic loss during the upgrade process, we recommend that
you operate the line cards at 50% line rate. This 50% limit must be
maintained per PFE on each line card.
To prepare the MX480 router for the Enhanced MX Switch Control Board (MX SCBE)
upgrade:
1. Verify that the system runs Junos OS Release 11.4 or later by issuing the show version
command on the master router.
user@host> show version
Model: mx480
Junos Base OS Software Suite [11.4-20110530];
NOTE: The MX SCBE is supported only in Junos OS Release 11.4 or later.
The latest software ensures a healthy system—that is, Routing Engines, control boards,
and FPCs—before the upgrade.
2. Verify that MX SCB boards are installed by issuing the show chassis hardware
command.
