Hello guys.
I have a 2 x XE port LACP going from an EX300 virtual chassis (lets call it EX-VC) to en EX3300 standalone (lets call it EX).
I have configured the EX-VC as such:
# show interfaces xe-0/1/1
ether-options {
802.3ad ae0;
}
# show interfaces xe-1/1/1
ether-options {
802.3ad ae0;
}
show interfaces ae0
aggregated-ether-options {
lacp {
active;
}
}
I have configured the EX as such:
# show interfaces xe-0/1/0
ether-options {
802.3ad ae0;
}
# show interfaces xe-0/1/1
ether-options {
802.3ad ae0;
}
# show interfaces ae0
aggregated-ether-options {
lacp {
active;
}
}
unit 0 {
family ethernet-switching;
}
Now, let's look at the aggregated interfaces.
Here is the EX-VC, and we can see something odd here already:
# run show lacp interfaces ae0
Aggregated interface: ae0
LACP state: Role Exp Def Dist Col Syn Aggr Timeout Activity
xe-1/1/1 Actor No No Yes Yes Yes Yes Fast Active
xe-1/1/1 Partner No No Yes Yes Yes Yes Fast Active
LACP protocol: Receive State Transmit State Mux State
xe-1/1/1 Current Fast periodic Collecting distributing
So let's look at the EX side:
# run show lacp interfaces ae0
Aggregated interface: ae0
LACP state: Role Exp Def Dist Col Syn Aggr Timeout Activity
xe-0/1/1 Actor No No Yes Yes Yes Yes Fast Active
xe-0/1/1 Partner No No Yes Yes Yes Yes Fast Active
xe-0/1/0 Actor No Yes No No No Yes Fast Active
xe-0/1/0 Partner No Yes No No No Yes Fast Passive
LACP protocol: Receive State Transmit State Mux State
xe-0/1/1 Current Fast periodic Collecting distributing
xe-0/1/0 Defaulted Fast periodic Detached
The EX side looks fine!
But what's going on with the LACP on the EX-VC side? Let's look at the interfaces, and try to find out why it's only showing xe-1/1/1, when we have configured xe-0/1/1 to be a part of the LACP as well.
run show interfaces xe-0/1/1
error: device xe-0/1/1 not found
Hmmm.. What interfaces can I select?
Possible completions:
<interface-name> Name of physical or logical interface
xe-0/1/0
xe-0/1/0.0
xe-0/1/3
xe-1/1/0
xe-1/1/0.0
xe-1/1/1
xe-1/1/1.0
There is no xe-0/1/1, how ever theres an xe-0/1/3, but what the heck is that? It's not configured on the EX-VC, it's not a part ae0!
I dont know how to move on from here. 😞
