PTX10008 Routing and Control Board Components and Descriptions

The Routing and Control Board (RCB) is an integrated board and a single FRU that provides Routing Engine and Control Board (CB) functionality. The Routing Engine performs all route-processing functions, whereas the CB performs chassis control and management plane functionality. The RCB provides control plane functions. You can install one or two RCBs on the router. Each RCB functions as a unit.

PTX10008 Routing and Control Board Description

The PTX10008 Routing and Control Board (RCB) is responsible for system management in a PTX10008 (see Figure 1). The chassis can run with one or two RCBs. We ship the base configurations with one RCB; and you can expand the configuration with a second RCB for a fully-redundant system. When two RCBs are installed, one functions as the primary RCB and the second as a backup. If the primary RCB is removed, the backup RCB becomes the primary if GRES is configured.

PTX10008 routers support the following Routing Engines for systems running standard Junos OS:

JNP10K-RE0
JNP10K-RE1
JNP10K-RE1-LT
JNP10K-RE1-128G

PTX10008 routers that have JNP10008-SF3 installed support the following Routing Engines:

JNP10K-RE1-E (64 GB, runs Junos OS Evolved Release 19.4R1-S1 and later, spare)
JNP10K-RE1-ELT (64 GB, runs limited Junos OS Evolved Release 20.3R1 and later, spare)
JNP10K-RE1-E128 (128 GB, runs Junos OS Evolved Release 19.4R1-S1 and later, spare)
JNP10K-RE2-E128 (128 GB, runs Junos OS Evolved Release 22.4R1 and later, spare)

Routing and Control Board Functions

The Routing and Control Board integrates the control plane and Routing Engine functions into a single management unit. Each RCB provides all the functions needed to manage the operation of the modular chassis:

System control functions such as environmental monitoring
Routing Layer 2 and Layer 3 protocols
Communication to all components such as line cards, Switch Interface Boards (SIBs), and power and cooling
Transparent clocking
Alarm and logging functions

Routing and Control Board Components

Each RCB consists of the following internal components:

Quad-core 2.5-GHz CPU
32 GB SDRAM
SATA SSD

Other standard features are shown in Figure 3.

4 — Ethernet management (MGMT) ports: RJ-45 port for 10/100/1000 BASE-T (em0) and small-form factor pluggable (SFP) for port fiber (em1). If both copper and fiber cables are installed, the RJ-45 is the default.	8 — Four SFP+ ports (reserved for future use)

Note:

You can use either management interface, em0 or em1 when the RCB is running as the primary RE. Use only em1 when the RCB is running as the backup RE.

Routing and Control Board Physical Specifications

All the RCBs have the same physical specifications. Table 1 shows the physical specifications of the RCBs.

PTX10008 Routing and Control Board LEDs

The PTX10008 Routing and Control Boards (RCBs) have various types of LED indicators (see Figure 5).

Routing and Control Board Status Panel LEDs

The RCB status panel LEDs indicate the state of the RCB (see Figure 7).

Figure 7: Routing and Control Board Status Panel LEDs and Button

PTX10008 Management Port LEDs

The two management ports on the RCB of a PTX10008 router have LEDs that indicate link status and link activity. These two ports, located on the RCB panel between the clocking connections and the USB port, are both labeled MGMT. The left management port (RJ-45) is for 10/100/1000 BASE-T connections, and the right port (SFP) is for 10/100/1000 BASE-T and small form-factor pluggable (SFP) 1000 BASE-X connections (see Figure 8). The copper (RJ-45) port has separate LEDs for status and activity. The fiber (SFP) port has a combination link and activity LED.
