Follow the CLI prompts. The switch will need to be reloaded to complete this
procedure.
Upgrade the software on all switches and external Routing Engines in the Virtual
4.
Chassis to the same Junos OS release. All switches and external Routing Engines must
be running the same version of Junos OS before being connected into a Virtual Chassis.
See "Installing Software on an EX Series Switch with a Single Routing Engine (CLI
Procedure)" on page 84 or "Installing Software on an EX8200 Switch with Redundant
Routing Engines (CLI Procedure)" on page 85.
Make a list of the serial numbers of all switches and external Routing Engines to be

connected in the Virtual Chassis configuration. See Locating the Serial Number on an
EX8200 Switch or Component and Locating the Serial Number on an XRE200 External

NOTE: You must use a preprovisioned configuration to configure an
EX8200 Virtual Chassis. Nonprovisioned configuration is not supported.
