On SRX Series Services Gateways, the logical tunnel interface is used to interconnect logical systems. Use this page to interconnect logical system that serves as an internal virtual private LAN service (VPLS) switch connecting one logical system on the device to another.
The Interfaces configuration page appears. Table 125 explains the contents of this page.
Add or +—Add a new or duplicate interface configuration. See, Table 126.
Edit or /—Edit the selected interface configuration.
Delete or X—Delete the selected interface configuration.
Click Commit icon at the top of the J-Web page. The following commit options are displayed.
Commit—Commits the configuration and returns to the main configuration page.
Compare—Enables you to compare the current configuration with the previous configuration.
Discard—Discards the configuration changes you performed in the J-Web.
Preferences—There are two tab:
Commit preferences—You can choose to just validate or validate and commit the changes.
Confirm commit timeout (in min) —You can select the commit timeout interval.

Field | Function |
|---|---|
Interface | Displays the interface name. Logical interfaces configured under this interface appear in a collapsible list under the physical interface. |
Link Status | Displays the operational status of the link. Status can be either Up or Down. |
IP Addresses | Displays the configured IP addresses. Multiple IP addresses configured on one logical interface are displayed in a collapsible list under the logical interface. |
Encapsulation | Displays the mode of encapsulation. Encapsulation is the process of taking data from one protocol and translating it into another protocol, so the data can continue across a network. It can from the following points:
Ethernet and Frame Relay are used if logical tunnel interfaces connected between two logical systems. Ethernet VPLS will be used on logical tunnel interface which is connecting VPLS switch to logical system. |
LSYS/Tenant/VPLS Switch | Displays the name of the logical system or the name of VPLS Switch. |
Peer Interface | Displays the peer details. |
Type | Displays the type for logical interface—Logical System, Tenant, or VPLS Switch. |
Peer Encapsulation | Displays the peer encapsulation mode. |
Peer LSYS/VPLS Switch | Displays the name of the peer logical system and VPLS Switch. |
