JUNOS Architecture

Transit Traffic:


Wont enter RE and directly processed in PFE and requires a forwarding table entry for destination.

If requires duplicates the packet on to multiple egress port.


Exception Traffic:


Traffic destined to local system(routing protocol updates, telnet, ping traceroute)

Ip packets with ip option field set

traffic that requires generation of icmp messages


forwarding plance <-> control plane internal link is rate limited to prevent DOS attacks

Control traffic is given preference

  • Configuration is hierarchical
