Initially Configuring MX5, MX10, MX40, and MX80 Routers

Copyright © 2019, Juniper Networks, Inc.

When the router boots, it first attempts to start the image on the USB flash drive. If a
USB flash drive is not inserted into the router or the attempt otherwise fails, the router
next tries the primary boot device, and then tries the secondary boot device.

either on a console device attached to the Routing Engine
panel, or over a telnet connection to a network connected to the Routing Engine
port on the front panel.
