OS for EX Series Ethernet Switches, Release 10.3
The Juniper Networks EX Series Ethernet Switches run under the Juniper Networks 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.
The EX8208 switch is 14 rack units (14 U) in size (1/3 rack); three EX8208 switches can
fit in a standard 42 U rack. Each EX8208 switch is designed to optimize rack space and
cabling. See Figure 3 on page 34.

The EX8208 switch has a chassis-level LCD panel that displays Routing Engine and
switch fabric status as well as chassis components' alarm information for rapid problem
identification. The LCD panel provides a user-friendly interface for performing initial
switch configuration, rolling back a configuration, or restoring the switch to its default
settings. See LCD Panel in an EX8200 Switch.
