JUNOS Release 10.2 Software Installation and Upgrade Guide
Category Change Installation
The category change installation process is used to move from one category of the
JUNOS Software to another on the same router; for example, moving from a JUNOS
standard installation on an M Series, MX Series, or T Series router to a JUNOS FIPS
installation. When moving from one installation category to another, you need to be
aware of the restrictions regarding this change.
NOTE: Juniper Networks does not support using the
command to restore a different installation category on the router. When installing
a different JUNOS Software category on a router, once the installation is complete,
you should execute a
installation from the system.
Recovery Installation
A recovery installation is performed to repair a router with damaged software or a
condition that prevents the upgrade, downgrade, or change in installation category
of the software.
For example, you may need to perform a recovery installation to change a router s
software category from JUNOS-FIPS to standard JUNOS.
Installation Categories on the M Series, MX Series, T Series, TX Matrix, and TX
Matrix Plus Routers
The following installation categories are available with the M Series, MX Series, T
Series, TX Matrix, and TX Matrix Plus routers:
