Configure SONET Link Aggregation

On SONET/SDH interfaces, you can associate a physical interface with an aggregated SONET interface. To associate the interface with an aggregated SONET link, include the aggregate statement at the [edit interfaces interface-name sonet-options] hierarchy level:

[edit interfaces interface-name sonet-options]
aggregate asx; 

x is the interface instance number and can range from 0 through 15, for a total of 16 aggregated interfaces. You should not mix SONET and SDH mode on the same aggregated interface. You must also include a statement configuring asx at the [edit interfaces] hierarchy level. For a sample configuration, see Example: Configure Aggregated SONET/SDH Interfaces.

You can combine like interfaces only, so each physical interface in the aggregate has to be the same speed.
