ports or uplink ports, but only ports 0 and 2 can be channelized using port mode. For
full details on the different port channelization modes, see “Port Panel of a
QFX5100-24Q Device” on page 23. All ports on the QFX5100-24Q and QFX-EM-4Q
can be configured as either access ports or uplink ports.
This switch provides the hardware support to enable PTP boundary clocks by using
the QFX-PFA-4Q module. The QFX5100-24Q-AA also supports GPS in and out signals
when QFX-PFA-4Q is installed.
The CPU subsystem of this switch includes a 2-port 10-Gigabit Ethernet network
interface card (NIC) to provide a high bandwidth path or to alternate traffic path to
guest VMs directly from the Packet Forwarding Engine.

TheQFX5100-24Q-AA canbe usedasa standalone switch that supports high frequency
statistics collection. Working with Juniper Networks Cloud Analytics Engine, this switch
monitors and reports the workload and application behavior across the physical and
virtual infrastructure.
The QFX5100-24Q-AA supports the following expansion modules to increase port
density:
•
QFX-PFA-4Q (double-wide), which provides four additional QSFP+ ports. See

•
QFX-EM-4Q (single-wide), which provides 4 additional 40-Gigabit Ethernet QSFP+
ports. See Figure 4 on page 7.
•
EX4600-EM-8F (single-wide), whichprovides 8 additional 10-GigabitEthernet SFP+
ports. See Figure 5 on page 7.
The QFX5100-24Q switch supports the QFX-PFA-4Q and you must take the switch
offline before replacing the expansion module. Any combination of EX4600-EM-8F
and QFX-EM-4Q is also supported. These two expansion modules can be hot-inserted
or hot-removed. However, when an EX4600-EM-8F is inserted insteadof aQFX-EM-4Q,
the new configuration causes the interfaces to temporarily go down. Likewise, when
