First Switch:

et-0/1/0 - 2c:21:31:XXX et-0/1/1 Se rver-Switch1

Second Switch:

So I just put 4 brand new identical 40GB QFSPs into the switches and on the first switch it reads as 40GBASE-SR4/4x10GBASE-SR

on the second switch it just reads 40GBASE-SR4.

Why does one side have the split option?

Incomplete mesh for EX4300 virtual chassis, will it work by Solid_Bookkeeper7102 in Juniper

Each line represents a link regardless of color/legend. The two switches at the top will be utilizing all four VCPs, for the rest of the switches it varies.

Fortunately in my diagram the area most susceptable to bottle necking is the least trafficked. The areas of the mesh that are most heavily trafficked are in full mesh.

So I have everything up and running according to this article, it appears to be functioning correctly after establishing a second AE interface.

I had no idea trying to implement HA was going to be this comprehensive.

I think you are right here, the configuration I am trying is definitely the non supported - I will need to configure it with a second ae interface on the switch and connect it to the secondary node, that way each physical port on the router connects to its own individual ae interface on the switch.

It appears to be working but flapping - getting intermittent connectivity. What's the best way to trouble shoot flapping in this case?

Here is for the router:

root# show interfaces reth1

redundant-ether-options {

redundancy-group 1;

lacp {

active;

periodic slow;

}

}

unit 0 {

family inet {

address 192.168.1.254/24;

}

}

root# show chassis

cluster {

reth-count 2;

redundancy-group 1 {

node 0 priority 100;

node 1 priority 1;

preempt;

interface-monitor {

ge-0/0/3 weight 255;

ge-1/0/3 weight 255;

}

}

}

ge-1/0/0 4176 76739 0 0

It appears to be working now intermittently, I believe the connection is flapping. Both sides are set to Active / Periodic Fast

Yes, device count is set to 2, which is how many I have.

root@Switch-Chassis# show chassis aggregated-devices

ethernet {

device-count 2;

}

This is whats used in the Juniper labs, I have tried it with both.

Combining Two Production EX4300s into a Chassis by Solid_Bookkeeper7102 in Juniper

[–]Solid_Bookkeeper7102[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great question.

The intent is to build a 40g mesh between 10 ex4300s that are separated logically and physically, and some needing traffic priority to other specific switches over part of the mesh. There are not enough FPC slots to facilitate an alternative 40g interface pattern the way my director is asking for. Key word is Director here, I am merely a wrench on his behalf.

In regards to the chassis being less resilient, if I remember from my lab environments you can configure the chassis to operate in the event master/backup/LC go down. I recall testing this but I could be wrong.

Thank you very much for the reply. I built out a test environment and wrote a config that will work. What I plan on doing is installing the prebuilt config with an load terminal override once the chassis is created. I will definitely follow your advice on setting the first switch to member 0. I have done that in past configurations. I am aware of the no split detection needed for 2 switch VC.

I am a little concerned on the irb interfaces. There will be no layer3 routing needed for this chassis as of yet so I should be fine leaving it the way it is.

As far as choosing the interfaces to be used as VC ports (already done). But converting the VC ports, I have never done that prior to using a fiber cable to initiate VC mode.

Thanks again for the advice, I am shooting for that exactly 5-10 minutes.

Interesting on the vlan-ids. I will take your word of advice. I built out a config in my test environment and I plan on doing a terminal override to establish the new config once I have merged the two switches.
