  • 1.  Maximum number of RVIs

    Posted 04-07-2017 20:57

    Can anyone pinpoint me to a kb article/mention of maximum number of RVIs across EX series switches ?

    Does it work that way ? Hardware footprint/model relationship ? i.e. the beefier the model, the more supported ?

    Or is it a JUNOS revision relationship ? i.e. the later the revision, the more supported ?

    Or neither, and there is hardstop/finite number regardless of JUNOS revision and/or hardware footprint ?

    There is no RVI configuration limit only the maximum number of vlans supported on each switch model.

     

    But you may hit other platform limits with a large number of RVI like bandwidth, mac addresses or other traffic related items by having all the vlan traffic come to a particular switch for their default gateway.  Thus you will need to be aware of all the link capacity to the gateway in your network design.
