About the Route Insight Manager Appliance
Route Insight Manager is a route analytics tool that provides insight into real-time
routing topology and monitors vital service parameters such as network churn and
prefix flaps, alerting you to potential problems and allowing before and after
comparisons and event analysis.
Route Insight Manager appliances are easy to deploy. The appliances physically
connect to the network directly to one of the routers or through a switch or hub. The
appliances establish communication with several routers in the network through the
routing protocol over the single physical connection. Link-state routers send periodic
update messages that communicate network information to each other, and to the
appliance.
You can monitor and record network events in different parts of the network with
multiple route recorder units. The distributed recorders collect routing data locally,
from the area where they are installed, through generic route encapsulation (GRE)
tunnels, or both. A centralized Management Console retrieves the data from each
recorder. For a description of recorder configuration, see the “Configuration and
Management”chapter in the Route Insight Manager Administrator’s Guide.
Front and Back Panel Overview and Features
The Route Insight Manager appliance is shown in Figure 1 on page 3 and has a 2U
rack-mountable chassis with optional redundant AC and DC power supplies, a 2U
hot-swappable mirrored RAID1 array, 12 GB of memory, and a Gigabit Ethernet
controller.

Route Insight Manager FRUs
The following sections describe the field replaceable units (FRUs) in the Route Insight
Manager appliance chassis.
■Hard Drive on page 5
■Power Supply on page 5
■Fans on page 6
Hard Drive
The Route Insight Manager appliance ships with hot-swappable hard disks to offer
component redundancy. The appliance has a RAID10 configuration of six 500 GB
SAS drives (5001) or four 1TB SAS drives (5002). Redundant disks maintain a copy
of the software image and configuration information as it is on working drives. If the
working drive fails, the redundant drive immediately assumes responsibility for Route
Insight Manager operations. You can hot-swap the disk if any one of the disk drives
fails. The drives are externally accessible.
Redundant array of independent disk (RAID) is an organization of multiple disks to
enhance fault tolerance and performance. It is used in the servers for data storage
and to replicate data among multiple hard disk drives. There are different RAID levels
designed to increase data reliability and increased I/O performance. In RAID10,
drives are striped for performance, and all striped drives are duplicated for fault
tolerance.
The key concepts in RAID are:
■Mirroring - copy data to more than one disk
■Striping - split data across more than one disk
■Error correction - redundant data storage to detect and resolve problems
The hard drive LEDs are described in Table 3 on page 5.

Power Supply
The appliance has a dual hot swap redundant 560W AC power supply module, and
can support additional redundant power supply modules. If one power supply fails,
an optional second power supply can assume responsibility for the entire power
load. The appliances also have a hot swap dual redundant 560W DC power supply

■If earthquakes are a possibility in your geographical
area, secure the rack to the floor.
■Secure the rack to the ceiling brackets as well as wall
or floor brackets if maximum stability is required.
Rack connection to building
structure
One pair of mounting brackets is supplied with the appliance. The holes in the
mounting brackets are spaced at 1 U (1.75 in. or 4.445 cm), so the appliance can be
mounted in any rack that provides holes spaced at that distance.
The outer edges of the mounting brackets extend the width of the chassis to 19 in.
(48.2 cm), and the front of the chassis extends approximately 0.5 in. (1.27 cm)
beyond the mounting brackets. The spacing of rails and adjacent racks must also
allow for the clearances around the appliance and rack.
Environmental Requirements for a Route Insight Manager Appliance
The appliance must be installed in a rack or cabinet housed in a dry, clean,
well-ventilated, and temperature-controlled environment.
Ensure that these environmental guidelines are followed:
■The site must be as dust-free as possible, because dust can clog air intake vents
and filters, reducing the efficiency of the appliance cooling system.
■Maintain ambient airflow for normal appliance operation. If the airflow is blocked
or restricted, or if the intake air is too warm, the appliance might overheat.Table

Fire Safety Requirements for the Route Insight Manager Appliance
In the event of a fire emergency involving switches and other network equipment,
the safety of people is the primary concern. You should establish procedures for
protecting people in the event of a fire emergency, provide safety training, and
properly provision fire control equipment and fire extinguishers.
In addition, you should establish procedures to protect your equipment in the event
of a fire emergency. Juniper Networks products should be installed in an environment
suitable for electronic equipment. We recommend that fire suppression equipment
be available in the event of a fire in the vicinity of the equipment, and that all local
fire, safety, and electrical codes and ordinances be observed when installing and
operating your equipment.
Fire Suppression
In the event of an electrical hazard or an electrical fire, you should first turn power
off to the equipment at the source. Then use a Type C fire extinguisher, which uses
noncorrosive fire retardants, to extinguish the fire.
Fire Suppression Equipment
Type C fire extinguishers, which use noncorrosive fire retardants such as carbon
dioxide and Halotron™, are most effective for suppressing electrical fires. Type C fire
10 ■Fire Safety Requirements for the Route Insight Manager Appliance
Route Insight Manager Quick Start

extinguishers displace oxygen from the point of combustion to eliminate the fire.
For extinguishing fire on or around equipment that draws air from the environment
for cooling, you should use this type of inert oxygen displacement extinguisher
instead of an extinguisher that leaves residues on equipment.
Do not use multipurpose Type ABC chemical fire extinguishers (dry chemical fire
extinguishers). The primary ingredient in these fire extinguishers is monoammonium
phosphate, which is very sticky and difficult to clean. In addition, in the presence of
minute amounts of moisture, monoammonium phosphate can become highly
corrosive and corrodes most metals.
Any equipment in a room in which a chemical fire extinguisher has been discharged
is subject to premature failure and unreliable operation. The equipment is considered
to be irreparably damaged.
NOTE: To keep warranties effective, do not use a dry chemical fire extinguisher to
control a fire at or near a Juniper Networks appliance. If a dry chemical fire
extinguisher is used, the unit is no longer eligible for coverage under a service
agreement.
We recommend that you dispose of any irreparably damaged equipment in an
environmentally responsible manner.

Attaching Mounting Brackets
To install your appliance in a rack, you must attach mounting brackets to it.
Your appliance is shipped with one pair of mounting brackets. The holes in the
mounting brackets are spaced at 1 U (1.75 in. or 4.445 cm), so the appliance can be
mounted in any rack that provides holes spaced at that distance.
The outer edges of the mounting brackets extend the width of the chassis to 19 in.
(48.2 cm). The spacing of rails and adjacent racks must also allow for the clearances
around the appliance and rack.
The chassis and brackets are designed to allow front, middle, or rear mounting.
You need a Phillips (+) screwdriver, number 2 to mount the brackets.
To attach each mounting bracket to the appliance:
1. Place the appliance on a flat, stable surface.
2. Align the mounting brackets along the front, rear, or center of a side panel of
the appliance chassis, depending on how you want to mount the appliance in a
rack. For example, if you want to center-mount the appliance, align the mounting
brackets along the center of the side panel.
3. Align the bottom hole in the mounting bracket with a hole on the side panel on
the appliance chassis.
4. Insert one mounting screw (provided in the accessory box shipped with the
appliance) into each of the two aligned holes. Use a Phillips (+) screwdriver,
number 2 to tighten the screw to the chassis. Ensure that the other holes in the
mounting bracket are aligned with the corresponding holes in the side panel.
5. Insert screws into the other holes in the mounting bracket aligned with the holes
in the side panel and tighten the screws to the chassis using a Phillips (+)
screwdriver, number 2.
Installing the Appliance in a Rack
Ensure these tasks are completed before installing the appliance in a rack:
■Unpack the appliance, as described in “Unpacking an Appliance”on page 3.
■Remove the appliance from the shipping container and place it on a flat surface.
■Attach the mounting brackets to the chassis, as described in “Attaching Mounting
Brackets”on page 3
To install the appliance in a rack:
1. Attach the chassis to the rack. We recommend that two people perform this
step: one person to hold the chassis in place while the other inserts the screws.
14 ■Attaching Mounting Brackets
Route Insight Manager Quick Start

WARNING: Use correct lifting technique when moving the appliance.
■Align the holes in the mounting bracket with the holes in the rack rails.
■Insert the screws in each of the holes and tighten them with a Phillips (+)
screwdriver, number 2.
2. Plug the Ethernet cable into the network port marked ETH0 on the front panel.
3. Plug the null modem serial cable into the console port.
A null modem cable was shipped with the appliance. If you do not have that
cable, use any other null modem serial cable.
The basic hardware installation is now complete. The next step is to connect the
appliance to a console.
Connecting a Console to the Appliance
To connect to the Route Insight Manager appliance for the first time, you must attach
it to a console terminal running an emulation utility such as HyperTerminal.
To connect the console:
1. Configure a console terminal or terminal emulation utility to use the following
serial connection parameters:
■9600 bits per second
■8-bit no parity (8N1)
■1 stop bit
■No flow control
2. Connect the terminal or laptop to the null modem serial cable plugged into the
appliance console port.
The next step is to power on and perform initial setup.
Configuring Basic Settings
CAUTION: By default, the appliance requires a static IP address. If you use Dynamic
Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) (not recommended) to acquire an IP address,
serious problems can occur when the IP address changes. For example, you will be
unable to view database information on the web-based user interface.
Perform these steps to configure the basic settings of the appliance:
1. Power on the appliance by pressing the power button on the front panel. The
power LED light illuminates when the power is on.

serial port console. If a console password is set, a password prompt is printed upon
connecting to the serial console. By default, no password is set and so no prompt is
printed to ask for a password. If a user disconnects from the serial console without
quitting back to the password prompt, the console will remain logged in so the next
user to connect will have access without needing to give the password again.

If the appliance is part of a distributed configuration, the Management Console
designated as the master will associate itself with client units through an HTTP POST.
The Management Console authenticates that initial POST using the Master Access
password. A default password is already set on all appliances as delivered, so it is
not necessary to change this password. If you want to choose a different password,
the same password must be set using this command on the master and on each of
the clients. The password may be up to 250 characters long.
