Software Overview
Each J-series Services Router runs the JUNOS Internet software on its general-purpose
processors. Designed for the large production networks typically supported by Internet
service providers (ISPs), the JUNOS software includes processes for Internet Protocol
(IP) routing and for managing interfaces, networks, and the router chassis.
The JUNOS Internet software runs on the Routing Engine. The Routing Engine kernel
coordinates communication among the JUNOS software processes and provides a
link to the Packet Forwarding Engine.
With the J-Web interface and the command-line interface (CLI) you configure the
routing protocols that run on the Services Router and set the properties of its network
interfaces. After activating a software configuration, use either user interface to
monitor the protocol traffic passing through the router, manage operations, and
diagnose protocol and network connectivity problems.
