Logical Systems Feature Guide for Routing Devices
With Junos OS, you can partition a single router into multiple logical devices that perform independent routing tasks, known as logical systems. Logical systems are defined largely by the resources allocated to them, features enabled for the logical context, their routing configurations, and their logical interface assignments. Because logical systems perform a subset of the tasks once handled by the main router, logical systems offer an effective way to maximize the use of a single routing or switching platform. The topics on this page provide information about how to use and configure logical systems on devices running Junos OS.
