JN0-102 · Question #29

What are two benefits of the modular design of the Junos OS? (Choose two.)

The correct answer is B. Each module runs in its own protected memory space. C. Each module can be individually restarted. The modular design of Junos OS enhances system stability and maintainability by isolating processes and allowing independent restarts.

Why each option

The modular design of Junos OS enhances system stability and maintainability by isolating processes and allowing independent restarts.

AEach module uses application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs).

While some Junos platforms utilize ASICs for specific forwarding functions, the modular design of the OS itself refers to software processes, not a requirement for each software module to use ASICs; ASICs are hardware components, not a direct benefit of the software's modular design.

BEach module runs in its own protected memory space.Correct

Junos OS processes are designed to run as separate modules, each operating within its own protected memory space. This isolation prevents a failure in one module from crashing the entire operating system, ensuring greater system stability and reliability.

CEach module can be individually restarted.Correct

Due to their independent nature and separate memory spaces, individual Junos OS modules can be restarted without affecting other operational processes or requiring a full system reboot. This capability allows for targeted troubleshooting and maintenance, minimizing service disruption.

DEach module is supported across all Junos platforms.

Not all Junos modules are supported across all Junos platforms; specific features and their associated modules can vary depending on the hardware platform's capabilities and intended use case.
