Description
Configure properties for aggregated devices on the router. Aggregate Ethernet links are logical interfaces defined on the device that bundle together multiple physical interfaces into a single interface for the use of redundancy and bandwidth aggregation. When interconnecting devices you can create aggregate ethernet interfaces to bundle together multiple physical ethernet links to increase bandwidth and redundancy between devices.
Link aggregation enables you to group Ethernet interfaces to form a single link layer interface. Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) is supported in chassis cluster deployments, where aggregated Ethernet interfaces and redundant Ethernet interfaces are supported simultaneously.
You must first configure the system to enable configuring the
Aggregated Ethernet (ae) Interfaces. By default, Juniper devices do
not have any aggregated ethernet interfaces created. To configure
the device to support a given number of ae interfaces, you must define
it on a per chassis basis using the set chassis aggregated-devices
devices {1-32}
in configuration mode. The number of devices
you define will be the number of aggregated ethernet interfaces that
the system will create which can be configured just like any other
ethernet interface. Also you can view the interfaces created by using
the show interface terse
command. Once you have defined
the number of aggregated ethernet devices on the chassis you can then
continue to configure the LAG members on a per ethernet interface
basis.
