Ethernet Overview
Ethernet modules support the following Ethernet interfaces:
This section describes features that are available with Ethernet interfaces.
Ethernet modules use the Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) to obtain MAC addresses for outgoing Ethernet frames. For more information about ARP, see JUNOSe IP, IPv6, and IGP Configuration Guide, Chapter 1, Configuring IP.

Features
Ethernet interfaces support the following features:
- Routing of IP packets.
- Quality of Service (QoS) classification.
- High-density Ethernet. (For information, see High-Density Ethernet.)
- Virtual LAN (VLAN) configurations. (For information, see JUNOSe Link Layer Configuration Guide, Chapter 5, Configuring VLAN and S-VLAN Subinterfaces.)
- Stacked Virtual LAN (S-VLAN) configurations. (For information, see JUNOSe Link Layer Configuration Guide, Chapter 5, Configuring VLAN and S-VLAN Subinterfaces.)
- IEEE 802.3ad link aggregation configurations. (For information, see JUNOSe Link Layer Configuration Guide, Chapter 6, Configuring 802.3ad Link Aggregation and Link Redundancy.)
- Configurations with upper-layer protocols. (For information, see JUNOSe Link Layer Configuration Guide, Chapter 4, Configuring Upper-Layer Protocols over Static Ethernet Interfaces.)
- Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol (L2TP. For information, see JUNOSe Link Layer Configuration Guide, Chapter 4, Configuring Upper-Layer Protocols over Static Ethernet Interfaces.)
- Multinetting. (For information, see JUNOSe Link Layer Configuration Guide, Chapter 4, Configuring Upper-Layer Protocols over Static Ethernet Interfaces.)
