Software Views Overview
Configuring and managing the Juniper Control System (JCS) 1200 platform and connected T-series routing platforms requires three separate control points (views). Each view provides a different access to different parts of the system:
- Through the JCS management module command-line interface (CLI), a JCS administration view enables you to configure and manage JCS 1200 platform components, including the JCS switch module and blade (or Routing Engine) parameters.
- Through the JUNOS software running on the Routing Engine pair in the T-series routing platform (called the Root System Domain), the RSD administration view enables you to create the Protected System Domains (PSDs) and to manage all the hardware in the T-series chassis.
- Through the JUNOS software running on a Routing Engine (or Routing Engine pair) in the JCS chassis, the PSD administration view enables you to configure and manage the hardware that is assigned to the PSD.
