Documentation and Release Notes
To obtain the most current version of all Juniper Networks®technical documentation,
see the product documentation page on the Juniper Networks website at
https://www.juniper.net/documentation/.
If the information in the latest release notes differs from the information in the
documentation, follow the product Release Notes.
Juniper Networks Books publishes books by Juniper Networks engineers and subject
matter experts. These books go beyond the technical documentation to explore the
nuances of network architecture, deployment, and administration. The current list can
be viewed at https://www.juniper.net/books.
Using the Examples in This Manual
If you want to use the examples in this manual, you can use the load merge or the load
merge relative command. These commands cause the software to merge the incoming
configuration into the current candidate configuration. The example does not become
active until you commit the candidate configuration.
If the example configuration contains the top level of the hierarchy (or multiple
hierarchies), the example is a full example. In this case, use the load merge command.
If the example configuration does not start at the top level of the hierarchy, the example
isasnippet. In this case, use the load merge relative command. These procedures are
described in the following sections.
xiCopyright © 2018, Juniper Networks, Inc.

Merging a Full Example
To merge a full example, follow these steps:
1. From the HTML or PDF version of the manual, copy a configuration example into a
text file, save the file with a name, and copy the file to a directory on your routing
platform.
For example, copy the following configuration to a file and name the file ex-script.conf.
Copy the ex-script.conf file to the /var/tmp directory on your routing platform.
system {
scripts {
commit {
file ex-script.xsl;
}
}
}
interfaces {
fxp0 {
disable;
unit 0 {
family inet {
address 10.0.0.1/24;
}
}
}
}
2. Merge the contents of the file into your routing platform configuration by issuing the
load merge configuration mode command:
[edit]
user@host# load merge /var/tmp/ex-script.conf
load complete
Merging a Snippet
To merge a snippet, follow these steps:
1. From the HTML or PDF version of the manual, copy a configuration snippet into a text
file, save the file with a name, and copy the file to a directory on your routing platform.
For example, copy the following snippet to a file and name the file
ex-script-snippet.conf. Copy the ex-script-snippet.conf file to the /var/tmp directory
on your routing platform.
commit {
file ex-script-snippet.xsl; }
2. Move to the hierarchy level that is relevant for this snippet by issuing the following
configuration mode command:
[edit]
Copyright © 2018, Juniper Networks, Inc.xii
PTX3000 Integrated Photonic Line System Feature Guide

user@host# edit system scripts
[edit system scripts]
3. Merge the contents of the file into your routing platform configuration by issuing the
load merge relative configuration mode command:
[edit system scripts]
user@host# load merge relative /var/tmp/ex-script-snippet.conf
load complete
For more information about the load command, see CLI Explorer.

Integrated Photonic Line Card Base and Expansion Module Overview
The PTX3000 integrated photonic line system is a fully integrated photonic line system
for converged core and metro core packet optical networks running point-to-point and
ring topologies. The PTX3000 integrated photonic line system includes the following
optional components:
•Integrated photonic line card (IPLC) base module
•Integrated photonic line card (IPLC) expansion module
The external optical inline amplifier (ILA) provides periodic amplification of the optical
line signal to enable long distance transmission.
A comprehensive management strategy enables complete management through both
the Junos OS CLI and optionally through the Connectivity Services Director (CSD)
application running on the Junos Space Network Management Platform.
To complete the optical solution, Juniper Networks integrated 100G Coherent
transponders can be leveraged, along with the IPLC base module, IPLC expansion module,
optical ILA and CSD to provide an end-to-end, fully managed packet optical solution.
This topic provides an overview of the integrated photonic line card (IPLC) base module
and expansion module and includes the following sections:

Overview
The IPLC base module provides the combined functionality of a 32-port reconfigurable
optical add/drop multiplexer (ROADM), optical amplifier, optical equalizer, and optical
channel monitor on a single card. It enables ad-hoc allocation of network bandwidth for
high-demand, real-time applications, and network services that are delivered over an
optical fiber infrastructure. You can use the IPLC expansion module to increase the system
capacity to 64 channels.
Figure 1: IPLC Point-to-Point Configuration
Figure 1 on page 4 shows a typical IPLC point-to-point configuration. In this configuration,
the Line IN and Line OUT ports on the front of the IPLC base modules are connected to
Juniper Networks’ optical inline amplifier (ILA) in the optical fiber network. Optical ILA
nodes are typically placed into the network where the fiber length is greater than 80—100
km. For a complete description of the IPLC hardware and optical ILA, see the PTX3000
Packet Transport Router with Integrated Photonic Line Card.
For ring configurations and other configurations that require east-west communications,
you can connect two IPLC base modules together to form a two-degree node that consists
of two 32-port ROADMs, each with its own line termination. You can also express traffic
east-west on a wavelength-by-wavelength basis. You configure all channel routing
through software.
Configuring, Managing, and Monitoring the IPLC
You can configure, manage, and monitor the components of the PTX3000 integrated
photonic line system in several ways. This section provides an overview of these methods
and their capabilities.
Junos OS CLI
Using the Junos OS CLI, you can configure, manage, and monitor IPLC modules in a similar
way to standard PTX3000 Series line cards—that is, by entering a minimum set of CLI
commands and making the proper physical connections between the various components
on the front panel of the line system.
Starting with Junos OS Release 17.1R1, you can configure and manage optical ILAs across
the optical supervisory channel (OSC) of the amplifier chain of the PTX3000 integrated
photonic line system.
