Upgrading to the RE-S-X6-64G Routing Engine in a Nonredundant Host
Subsystem
In a nonredundant host subsystem, only one Routing Engine and one Switch Control Board are present in
the chassis. When you are upgrading the Routing Engine, taking the host subsystem offline shuts down
the router. To upgrade the host subsystem with the RE-S-X6-64G Routing Engine, you must uninstall the
existing Routing Engine and install the RE-S-X6-64G Routing Engine. Ensure that the Switch Control Board
in the chassis is SCBE2 because the RE-S-X6-64G Routing Engine is not compatible with the Switch Control
Boards SCB or SCBE. To upgrade the Switch Control Board to SCBE2, see Upgrading an MX240 to Use the
SCBE2-MX, "Upgrading an MX480 to Use the SCBE2-MX" on page
SCBE2-MX, depending on the chassis on which the Routing Engine is being upgraded. .
NOTE: Save the router configuration before proceeding with the Routing Engine upgrade.
