Juniper Networks EX6210 Ethernet Switches provide high performance, scalable
connectivity, and carrier-class reliability for high-density environments such as
campus-access and data-center networks. The EX6210 switch is a modular system that
provides high availability and redundancy for all major hardware components, including
Routing Engines, switch fabric, fan tray (redundant fans), and power supplies.
You can manage EX6210 switches using the same interfaces that you use for managing
other devices running Juniper Networks Junos operating system (Junos OS)-the
command-line interface (CLI), the J-Web graphical interface, and Junos Space.

Juniper Networks EX Series Ethernet Switches run Junos OS, which provides Layer 2 and
Layer 3 switching, routing, and security services. The same Junos OS code base that runs
on EX Series switches also runs on all Juniper Networks J Series, M Series, MX Series, and
T Series routers and SRX Series Services Gateways.
