Solution

Pls find the answers to the queries reg QDD-400G-LR4-10.

  1. This model is compatible with JNP10K-LC9600 & can be installed normally.
  2. This model is supported from 21.4R1 on MX10008 & hence your version is compatible
  3. As per file attached I dont see any 400G used or licenses for ADV bandwidth added. Hence you need S-MX-4C-P1-D-P license per 400G to be used (6 nos for 6 *400G).
  4. As mentioned in 1st point, its normal installation.
  5. As updated in 3rd point, S-MX-4C-P1-D-P is the license for 1*400G.

 

Below is the public doc related to 1st & 2nd queries.
