    Release Information

    Command introduced in Junos OS Release 9.0 for EX Series switches.

    Option fpc-slot introduced in Junos OS Release 10.4 for EX Series switches.

    Description

    Enable or disable an uplink port (on an SFP, SFP+, or XFP uplink interface) or an SFP network port as a Virtual Chassis port (VCP).

    If you omit member member-id, this command defaults to enabling or disabling the uplink VCP or SFP network port configured as a VCP on the switch where the command is issued.

    On an EX3300 switch, uplink ports 2 and 3 are configured as VCPs by default. No other uplink ports on any other EX Series switches are configured as VCPs by default.

    You might experience a temporary traffic disruption immediately after creating or deleting a user-configured VCP in an EX8200 Virtual Chassis.
