[j-nsp] JunOS 10.4R8.5 on MX5? Am I forced to run 11.4+?

[Jerry Jones]

I believe you have one of the fixed configuration boxes which are different than the fully modular boxes, those do have additional capabilities such as h-qos

Would suspect diferent minimum codes based on that

Hi,

I recently bought a MX5-T (Instead of the MX80-5G) and I'm running
10.4R8.5 on my other MX80s and would naturally like to run the same
codebase on all my MX-series hardware. However when I try to install
the 10.4R8.5 release on the MX5-T it says that the platform is not
supported, I thought the MX5/10/40 was the same hardware as the MX80
(it surely looks the same, side-by-side)?

Does anyone have any thoughts or information on this? It got delivered
with 11.4R1.14 and I actually have no use of imix/etc whatever the new
features is in the 11.X, I just want to run them as network edges with
eBGP, iBGP and OSPF, no special stuff, and I'm happy with 10.4R8.5 so
far.

I also tried (for fun) to downgrade to 11.2R5.4 (which is the
recommended release according to JTAC) but that didn't work either,
the mgd process core-dumped and the validation failed, I did not run
with "no-validate" (yet) for neither of the softwares.

Thanks,
