Line Card Models

Table 38 on page 87 shows the model numbers, descriptions of the line card models, the Junos OS release

and the release in which Virtual Chassis Port (VCP) support was introduced for ports on the line card.
Table 38: 8-port SFP+ Line Card Models
Model Description
EX8200-8XS 8-port SFP+ line card
EX8200-8XS-ES Extra-scale 8-port SFP+ line card
NOTE:
provides larger IPv4 and IPv6
route table sizes than the
non-extra-scale models to store
more unicast routes.
NOTE: We recommend that you do not install extra-scale line card models and non-extra-scale
models in the same switch or Virtual Chassis. If you install extra-scale line cards in a switch or
Virtual Chassis that has non-extra-scale models installed, the IPv4 and IPv6 route table sizes
default to those of the non-extra-scale models and you will not get the benefit of the increased
table sizes of the extra-scale models.
You will experience these decreased route table sizes in a Virtual Chassis even when the
non-extra-scale line cards are installed in one member switch and the extra-scale line cards are
installed in another member switch.
