We have Juniper EX8208 chassis based switch running in a production environment. The switch has 2 REs running in active and standby role with RE0 being the primary routing engine. The device is providing Layer 2 switching services with no routing protocols are running on it.
We need to perform routing engine switchover to make RE1 master. However we are not sure that during the switchover , will FPCs reboot or not? In case the FPCs reboot , is there any way to prevent FPCs from rebooting during routing engine switchover.
The chassis redundancy is configured but we have not configured non stop routing on EX8200 switch.
