Platform Considerations for the JNU Controller<br />

Related<br />

Documentation<br />

You can use any MX Series 3D Universal Edge Router as the JNU controller. The MX Series<br />

router uses Modular Port Concentrators (MPCs) to connect to the satellites.<br />

You must use an MX Series router as the controller, <strong>and</strong> you must use MPCs (not DPCs).<br />

We recommend that you allocate more than one interface for interconnect between MX<br />

Series routers <strong>and</strong> satellites. These interfaces will be placed into link aggregation (LAG)<br />

configuration for fast recovery, with traffic spreading across member links.<br />

An MX Series router can manage one satellite on each of its Ethernet ports. For example,<br />

the MX960 router supports up to 176 10-Gigabit Ethernet interfaces. It can therefore<br />

manage up to 176 satellite devices on the 10-Gigabit Ethernet interfaces.<br />
