Removing and Inserting the PC Card

The slot labeled PC CARD on the Routing Engine faceplate accepts a Type I PC Card, as defined in the PC Card Standard published by the Personal Computer Memory Card International Association (PCMCIA). The router is shipped with a PC Card that contains JUNOS Internet software. The PC card can be used to copy JUNOS software from the PC Card onto the Routing Engine. You can also copy JUNOS software from the Routing Engine onto a PC Card, for example, to create a backup copy of upgrade software that you have obtained from Juniper Networks. Instructions for copying software to a PC Card are available at the Juniper Networks Support Web site (http://www.juniper.net/support/); after logging in, navigate to the Customer Support Center, then to the download page for JUNOS Internet software.

NOTE: The appearance and position of electronic components or the PC card slot on your Routing Engine might differ from the figures in this section. These differences do not affect Routing Engine installation and removal or functionality.

NOTE: The software on a PCMCIA card is loaded only onto the Routing Engine into which the PCMCIA card is inserted. It is not automatically copied to the other Routing Engine.
