Description
(vMX routers only) Enables vMX to run in lite mode and disables performance mode. Lite mode needs fewer vCPUs and memory to run at lower bandwidth. If you are using paravirtualized network interfaces such as virtio (for KVM) or VMXNET3 (for VMware) for lab simulation use cases, you can enable lite mode.
Note:
Make sure you have configured the proper number of vCPUs and memory for your VMs based on your use case. If you have not configured enough vCPUs for performance mode, vMX runs in lite mode.
Starting with Junos OS Release 15.1F6, performance mode is enabled by default for vMX.
Note:
The FPC reboots if you change this configuration.
