Specifications

2. After you have upgraded all routers, configure each router’s main instance loopback
address as the source address for multicast interfaces. Include the default-vpn-source
interface-name loopback-interface-name] statement at the [edit protocols pim]
hierarchy level.
3. After you have configured the router’s main loopback address on each PE router,
delete the multicast VPN loopback address (lo0.x) from all routers.
We also recommend that you remove the multicast VPN loopback address from all
PE routers from other vendors. In Junos OS releases prior to 10.1, to ensure
interoperability with other vendors’ routers in a draft-rosen multicast VPN network,
you had to perform additional configuration. Remove that configuration from both
the Juniper Networks routers and the other vendors’ routers. This configuration should
be on Juniper Networks routers and on the other vendors’ routers where you configured
the lo0.mvpn address in each VRF instance as the same address as the main loopback
(lo0.0) address.
This configuration is not required when you upgrade to Junos OS Release 10.1 and use
the main loopback address as the source address for multicast interfaces.
NOTE: To maintain a loopback address for a specific instance, configure
a loopback address value that does not match the main instance address
(lo0.0).
For more information about configuring the draft-rosen Multicast VPN feature, see the
Multicast Protocols Feature Guide for Routing Devices.
Upgrading the Software for a Routing Matrix
A routing matrix can be either a TX Matrix router as the switch-card chassis (SCC) or a
TX Matrix Plus router as the switch-fabric chassis (SFC). By default, when you upgrade
software for a TX Matrix router or a TX Matrix Plus router, the new image is loaded onto
the TX Matrix or TX Matrix Plus router (specified in the Junos OS CLI by using the scc or
sfc option) and distributed to all line-card chassis (LCCs) in the routing matrix (specified
in the Junos OS CLI by using the lcc option). To avoid network disruption during the
upgrade, ensure the following conditions before beginning the upgrade process:
•
A minimum of free disk space and DRAM on each Routing Engine. The software upgrade
will fail on any Routing Engine without the required amount of free disk space and
DRAM. To determine the amount of disk space currently available on all Routing Engines
of the routing matrix, use the CLI show system storage command. To determine the
amount of DRAM currently available on all the Routing Engines in the routing matrix,
use the CLI show chassis routing-engine command.
•
The master Routing Engines of the TX Matrix or TX Matrix Plus router (SCC or SFC)
and all LCCs connected to the SCC or SFC are all re0 or are all re1.
•
The backup Routing Engines of the TX Matrix or TX Matrix Plus router (SCC or SFC)
and all LCCs connected to the SCC or SFC are all re1 or are all re0.
