Page 5 highlights

Changes in Default Behavior and Syntax in JUNOS Release 10.2 for J-EX Series Switches disable distributed PPM and run PPM just on the Routing Engine only if there is a compelling reason to disable distributed PPM. • Enhancements to LCD menus-Using CLI commands, administrators can disable the Status menu, the Maintenance menu, and the options in these menus to prevent users from viewing certain details about the switch and from configuring and troubleshooting the switch from the LCD menu. • IPv6 path maximum transmission unit discovery-The IPv6 path maximum transmission unit (MTU) discovery feature is now available on J-EX8200 switches. Layer 2 and Layer 3 Protocols • IPv6 virtual routing and forwarding (VRF) multicast-IPv6 multicast traffic is now supported for VRF on J-EX4200, and J-EX8200 switches. Management and RMON • 802.1ag OAM support on J-EX4200 switches-802.1ag is an IEEE standard for connectivity fault management (CFM). The following features are supported: continuity check protocol, linktrace protocol, and loopback protocols. • sFlow enhancements on J-EX Series switches-You can configure the IP address to be assigned to the sFlow agent and the IP address to be used in sFlow datagrams. By configuring the IP addresses, you can ensure that the IP addresses are not dynamic and do not change when the switch restarts. Packet Filters • Enhancements to firewall filter actions supported on J-EX8200 switches-The log, reject, and syslog actions are now supported for ingress firewall filters on J-EX8200 switches. The reject action is supported on Layer 3 interfaces (router firewall filters) only.
