Power Off an MX10004 Router

Before you power off a Juniper Networks MX10004 router:
• Ensure that you have taken the necessary precautions to prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD)
damage. See "Prevention of Electrostatic Discharge Damage" on page
• Ensure that you don't need to forward traffic through the router.
• Ensure that you have the following parts and tools available to power off the router:
• An ESD grounding strap
• An external management device such as a PC
• An RJ-45-to-DB-9 rollover cable to connect the external management device to the console port
on one of the Routing and Control Boards (RCBs)
To power off an MX10004 router:
1. Connect to the router using one of the following methods:
• Connect a management device to the console (CON) port on an RCB by following the instructions
in "Connect an MX10004 Router to a Management Console" on page
• Connect a management device to one of the two management (MGMT) ports on the RCB by
following the instructions in
Management" on page
2. Shut down Junos OS from the external management device by using the request vmhost power-off
operational mode CLI command followed by the request chassis cb slot
commands shut down a single RCB gracefully and preserve system state information. When you
issued this command on a redundant system, it shuts down the partner RCB. A message appears on
the other RCB console, confirming that the operating system has halted. For example, if you want to
shut down the backup RCB, issue the command on the primary RCB. You view the output on the
backup RCB.
