Aggregated Ethernet Interfaces Configuration Overview

Note: This topic is specific to the SRX3000 and SRX5000 line devices. For information about link aggregation for other SRX Series devices and J Series devices, see the Junos OS Layer 2 Bridging and Switching Configuration Guide for Security Devices.

To configure an aggregated Ethernet interface:

  1. Set the number of aggregated Ethernet interfaces on the device. See Example: Adding Aggregated Ethernet Interfaces Using the Device Count .
  2. Associate a physical interface with the aggregated Ethernet interface. See Example: Associating Physical Interfaces with Aggregated Ethernet Interfaces.
  3. (Optional) Set the required link speed for all the interfaces included in the bundle. See Example: Configuring Aggregated Ethernet Link Speed .
  4. (Optional) Configure the minimum number of links that must be up for the bundle as a whole to be labeled as up. See Example: Configuring Aggregated Ethernet Minimum Links .
  5. (Optional) Enable or disable VLAN tagging. See Understanding VLAN Tagging for Aggregated Ethernet Interfaces.
  6. (Optional) Enable promiscuous mode. See Understanding Promiscuous Mode for Aggregated Ethernet Interfaces.
