—

Display the operational status of all VCPs of the member switch where the command is issued.

all-members
—

(Optional) Display the operational status of all VCPs on all members of the Virtual Chassis configuration.

local
—

(Optional) Display the operational status of the switch or external Routing Engine on which this command is entered.

Table 1: show virtual-chassis vc-port Output Fields

Field Name

Field Description

fpcnumber

The FPC number is the same as the member ID.

Interface or PIC/Port

VCP name.

  • The dedicated VCPs in an EX4200 or EX4500 Virtual Chassis are vcp-0 and vcp-1.
  • The uplink module ports set as VCPs in an EX4200 Virtual Chassis are named 1/0 and 1/1, representing the PIC number and the port number.
  • The native VCP (port 0) on an XRE200 External Routing Engine in an EX8200 Virtual Chassis is named vcp-0.
  • The VCPs on each Virtual Chassis Control Interface (VCCI) module in an XRE200 External Routing Engine are named using the vcp-slot-number/port-number convention; for instance, vcp-1/0.
  • The VCPs on EX8200 member switches are named using the vcp-slot-number/pic-number/interface-number convention; for instance, vcp-3/0/2.

Type

Type of VCP:

  • Dedicated—The rear panel VCP on an EX4200 or EX4500 switch. or any VCP link connected to an XRE200 External Routing Engine in an EX8200 Virtual Chassis.
  • Configured—Uplink port configured as a VCP in an EX4200 or EX4500 Virtual Chassis or an SFP+ link between two EX8200 switches configured as a VCP in an EX8200 Virtual Chassis.
  • Auto-Configured—Uplink port autoconfigured as a VCP in an EX4200 or EX4500 Virtual Chassis.

See Setting an Uplink Port on an EX3300 or EX4200 Switch as a Virtual Chassis Port (CLI Procedure) or Setting a 10-Gigabit Ethernet Port as a Virtual Chassis Port in an EX8200 Virtual Chassis (CLI Procedure) for information about configuring VCPs.

Trunk ID

A positive-number ID assigned to a link aggregation group (LAG) formed by the Virtual Chassis. The trunk ID value is –1 if no trunk is formed. A LAG between uplink VCPs requires that the link speed be the same on connected interfaces and that at least two VCPs on one member be connected to at least two VCPs on the other member in an EX4200 or EX4500 Virtual Chassis.

Dedicated VCP LAGs are assigned trunk IDs 1 and 2. Trunk IDs for LAGs formed with uplink VCPs therefore have values of 3 or greater.

The trunk ID value changes if the link-adjacency state between LAG members changes; trunk membership is then allocated or deallocated.

Status

Interface status:

  • absent—Interface is not a VCP link.
  • down—VCP link is down.
  • up—VCP link is up.

Speed (mbps)

Speed of the interface in megabits per second.

Neighbor ID/Interface

The Virtual Chassis member ID and interface of a VCP on a member that is connected to the interface or PIC/Port field in the same row as this interface.
