Questions & Answers

What is the S-MPC9E-R-ADD4 license and what does it enable?

The S-MPC9E-R-ADD4 is a perpetual Juniper software license that unlocks an additional 4x100G (or 6x40G/24x10G) ports on a restricted-use MX2K-MPC9E-RB line card with MIC-MRATE. Line card and MIC(s) must be purchased separately.

Which devices support the S-MPC9E-R-ADD4 license?

This license is fully compatible only with MX2000 Series routers equipped with the MPC9E-RB line card and MIC-MRATE. Other MX platforms are not supported.

What additional hardware do I need to use S-MPC9E-R-ADD4?

You must have an MX2K-MPC9E-RB line card and compatible MIC-MRATE optics installed. The S-MPC9E-R-ADD4 license itself does not include physical components.

How many ports and speeds does the S-MPC9E-R-ADD4 license add?

It adds up to 4x100G ports. Alternatively, you can configure 6x40G or 24x10G ports on the same line card, depending on your MIC choice.

How do I install and activate the S-MPC9E-R-ADD4 license?

Upload the entitlement certificate to the router, run 'request system license add <license-file>', then commit the configuration. No reboot is required for license enablement.

Is the S-MPC9E-R-ADD4 license permanent or subscription-based?

The S-MPC9E-R-ADD4 is a perpetual (one-time purchase) license with no recurring fees. Support and software updates follow your Juniper Care contract.

Can I transfer the S-MPC9E-R-ADD4 license to another router?

Yes. You may move the license to another compatible MX2000 chassis by removing it from the original device via the Juniper licensing portal before reapplying it.

How can I verify that the S-MPC9E-R-ADD4 license is active?

In operational mode, enter 'show system license' on the CLI. The output will list S-MPC9E-R-ADD4 with status 'Installed' and 'Enabled'.

Does the license support mixed port speeds on the same line card?

Yes. The MPC9E line card with MIC-MRATE can operate in mixed mode, supporting any combination of 100G, 40G, and 10G ports within the licensed limits.

Will adding S-MPC9E-R-ADD4 impact router performance?

No. The license only unlocks existing hardware capabilities. Packet throughput and forwarding performance remain within the MX2000’s specified limits.

What Junos OS version is required for S-MPC9E-R-ADD4?

Junos OS 18.1R1 or later is required. Always run a recommended maintenance release to ensure full license compatibility.

How do I order the S-MPC9E-R-ADD4 license?

Order through your Juniper reseller or partner using SKU S-MPC9E-R-ADD4. Provide your serial number to generate the entitlement certificate.

Can I install more than one S-MPC9E-R-ADD4 license per line card?

No. Each MPC9E-RB slot supports only one ADD4 license. For additional capacity, install a second MPC9E-RB line card in another slot.

Are there any usage restrictions for this license?

Yes. Because it is for a restricted-use line card, the license cannot be used for resale or multi-tenant hosting. It must remain within your own network.

Does S-MPC9E-R-ADD4 require downtime to deploy?

No scheduled downtime is required. License installation is an online operation; new ports come up immediately after the commit completes.

Where can I get technical support for the S-MPC9E-R-ADD4 license?

Juniper Care provides 24x7 technical support. Open a case via the Juniper Support portal or contact your Juniper account team.
