High Availability-Related Features in Junos OS

Related redundancy and reliability features include:

  • Redundant power supplies, host modules, host subsystems, and forwarding boards. For more information, see the Junos OS System Basics Configuration Guide and the Junos OS Hardware Network Operations Guide.
  • Additional link-layer redundancy, including Automatic Protection Switching (APS) for SONET interfaces, Multiplex Section Protection (MSP) for SDH interfaces, and DLSw redundancy for Ethernet interfaces. For more information, see the Junos® OS Network Interfaces.
  • Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) works with other routing protocols to detect failures rapidly. For more information, see the Junos OS Routing Protocols Configuration Guide.
  • Redirection of Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) label-switched path (LSP) traffic—Mechanisms such as link protection, node-link protection, and fast reroute recognize link and node failures, allowing MPLS LSPs to select a bypass LSP to circumvent failed links or devices. For more information, see the Junos OS MPLS Applications Configuration Guide.
