    Configuring a Layer 3 Logical Interface

    QFX Series systems use Layer 3 logical interfaces to divide a physical interface into multiple logical interfaces, each corresponding to a VLAN. Layer 3 logical interfaces route traffic between subnets.

    To configure Layer 3 logical interfaces, enable VLAN tagging and partition one or more physical ports into multiple logical interfaces, each corresponding to a VLAN ID.

    Before you begin, make sure you set up your VLANs. See Configuring VLANs.

    To configure Layer 3 logical interfaces:

    1. Enable VLAN tagging:
      [edit interfaces interface-name]
      user@switch# set vlan-tagging
    2. Bind each VLAN ID to a logical interface:
      [edit interfaces interface-name]
      user@switch# set unit logical-unit-number vlan-id vlan-id-number
