Configuring Aggregated Ethernet Minimum Links

[Contents] [Prev] [Next] [Index] [Report an Error]

On aggregated Ethernet interfaces, you can configure the minimum number of links that must be up for the bundle as a whole to be labeled up. By default, only one link must be up for the bundle to be labeled up.

To configure the minimum number of links, include the minimum-links statement at the [edit interfaces interface-name aggregated-ether-options] hierarchy level:



[edit interfaces interface-name aggregated-ether-options]

minimum-links number;

The range of valid values for number is 1 through 8. On M120, M320, MX-series, T-series, and TX Matrix routing platforms with Ethernet or SONET interfaces, the valid range is 1 through 16.

If the number of links configured in an aggregated Ethernet interface is less than the minimum link value configured under the aggregated-ether-options statement, the configuration commit fails and an error message is displayed.
