Explanation

In a Virtual Chassis (VC) configuration, multiple Juniper switches are interconnected to form a single logical device. Each member switch in the Virtual Chassis plays a specific role. Member switches acting as line cards provide additional ports for traffic forwarding but do not perform control or routing functions. These switches depend on the routing engine to handle control-plane tasks. Routing Engine Role: A switch in the routing-engine role is responsible for control-plane operations such as routing protocol management and control of the Virtual Chassis. Virtual Chassis Roles: Master Routing Engine: Handles control-plane functions and manages the entire Virtual Chassis. Backup Routing Engine: Takes over if the master fails. Line Card: Provides additional ports and handles data-plane operations.
