The EX8208 switch has a chassis-level LCD panel that displays Routing Engine and
switch fabric status as well as chassis components’ alarm information for rapid problem
identification. The LCD panel provides a user-friendly interface for performing initial
switch configuration, rolling back a configuration, or restoring the switch to its default
settings. See “LCD Panel in an EX8200 Switch” on page 17.
The EX8208 chassis backplane distributes the data, control, and management signals
to various system components along with distributing power throughout the system.
