Hi Alexander / Stefan, Those parameters will change the behavior for vMX into an internal build as they are used to simulate different chassis types for engineering during development. I really don't suggest this be done using them with vMX images as the personality/behavior of the image will change.
Regarding supporting multiple RE and FPC's, today we don't support them on vMX but, we are looking into getting them supported in a future release.

By changing parameters in the boot/loader.conf you can change certain behavior vm_chassis_i2cid="21" for MX960, "33" for MX480, and "48" for MX240 vm_ore_present=“0” for a single RE; vm_ore_present=“1” for dual REs vm_instance=“0” for the the RE, the first FPC slot; vm_instance=“1” for second FPC slot, and so on (not applicable to RE) Let’s say, you want to run 1 RE and 1 FPC on slot 0 (you can run 2 REs and up to 12 FPCs if you emulate an MX960) However the real imitation is somewhere else namely that VMware only allow up to 10 interfaces on one VM I think that currently this is not officially supported but as far as I know Juniper plans to allow up to 2 REs and up to ?(3 and more) separate PFE instances With best regards alexander -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: juniper-nsp [mailto:[email protected]] Im Auftrag von Stefan Stoyanov Gesendet: Donnerstag, 17.

I have installed vMX under VMWARE and I wanted to know if it's possible to add more than one FPC. I could find any documentation about that. Thanks. _______________________________________________ juniper-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp _______________________________________________ juniper-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp _______________________________________________ juniper-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp
