Thanks a lot for the information. It's definitely an SCBE (not a 2), but I tried upgrading to a 13 version just in case. Same FPGA revision error, and same firmware dead end.
I appreciate the help. If anyone else has any pointers, let me know. -----Original Message----- From: juniper-nsp [mailto:juniper-nsp-boun...@puck.nether.net] On Behalf Of Tobias Heister Sent: Tuesday, December 23, 2014 2:54 PM To: juniper-nsp@puck.nether.net Subject: Re: [j-nsp] MX480 SCB firmware issue Hi, Am 23.12.2014 um 23:23 schrieb Dave Peters - Terabit Systems: > 1 alarm currently active > Alarm time Class Description > 2014-12-23 21:50:13 UTC Major CB 0 FPGA Revision unsupported > > In looking over the Juniper documentation, there's a "request system > firmware" command to update the SCB, but unfortunately, I'm not seeing that > option (meaning "request system ?" doesn't reveal firmware as a possibility). > I'm also not seeing any specific BIOS/firmware files in the download section > of the Juniper MX Series portion of the Juniper website. It is a hidden command, so you have to manually complete it. After the firmware it starts to auto complete: > request system firmware ? > Possible completions: > downgrade > upgrade > request system firmware upgrade ? > Possible completions: > fpc Upgrade FPC ROM monitor > pic Upgrade PIC firmware > vcpu Upgrade VCPU ROM monitor The output above is from an MX240 with SCB. I have never seen that error showing up but from what i have seen on similar situations the firmware should be embedded in junos and the firmware upgrade should just work without additional files. But SCB seems not to be a valid upgrade target on MX: > request system firmware upgrade scb > error: command is not valid on the mx480 tested on MX480 with SCBE Would you by any chance have bought SCBE2 (they would probably not been available in used condition) instead of SCB. Just asking because SCBE2 is supported starting from 13.something and does not work in 12.3 -- Kind Regards Tobias Heister _______________________________________________ juniper-nsp mailing list juniper-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp _______________________________________________ juniper-nsp mailing list juniper-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp
