Release Information
Statement introduced in Junos OS Release 12.2 for the QFX Series.
Description
Specify the multichassis aggregated Ethernet interface configuration.
Options
chassis-id—Specify the chassis ID for LACP to calculate the port number of the MC-LAG physical member links.
mc-ae-id—Specify the identification number of MC-LAG device. The two MC-LAG QFX3500 devices that manage a given MC-LAG must have the same mc-lag-id.
mode (active | active)—Specify that the MC-LAG is in active-active mode. In this mode, if a member interface of the MC-LAG goes down, traffic can still be forwarded to the QFX3500 devices hosting the MC-LAG using the interchassis link-protection link (ICL-PL). The links from the client-device connected to both of the QFX3500 devices will remain active. Only active-active mode is supported at this time.
status-control (active | standby)—Specify if a peer is in active or standby mode. In active mode, the peer is considered the primary device, and in standby mode it is considered the secondary device. If the ICL-PL goes down, the peer in standby mode will bring its member links to standby state. If the Interchassis Control Protocol (ICCP) connection goes down, the peer in standby mode will change the LACP system ID to the default value on its member links.
 | Note: You cannot have both peers hosting an MC-LAG be in active or standby mode. One peer must be in active mode, and the other peer must be in standby mode. |
