To enable and use some Juniper Networks Junos OS features, you must purchase, install,
and manage separate software licenses. The presence on the switch of the appropriate
software license keys ("passwords") determines whether you are eligible to configure
and use certain features.
Junos operating system (Junos OS) feature licenses are universal, and the same feature
can be installed and configured on multiple switches. However, to conform to Junos OS
feature licensing requirements, you must purchase one license per switch.
For a Virtual Chassis deployment, two licenses are recommended for redundancy. These
licenses can be based on the serial numbers of any two member switches. If you add
additional member switches to the Virtual Chassis configuration, you do not need
additional licenses.
Features Requiring a License
The following Junos OS features require an Advanced Feature License (AFL):
Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) and multiprotocol BGP (MBGP)
Intermediate System-to-Intermediate System (IS-IS)
IPv6 routing (except multicast protocols)
MPLS with RSVP-based label switched paths (LSPs) and MPLS-based circuit
cross-connects (CCCs)
Table 26 on page 79 lists the license you can purchase for each EX Series switch model.
The license allows you to run all the advanced software features on your switch.
For information about how to purchase a software license, contact your Juniper Networks
sales representative.
