Hi All,
Fairly new to Juniper, but I am struggling setup up a new LACP on an EX4300 setup in VC. It's a 2 node pair. I am trying to setup xe-0/2/1 (on the primary) and xe-1/2/1 (on the secondary), but when I try and commit the configuration it complains about xSTP. I've tried all sorts, including deleting the RSTP protocol from these interfaces but it still won't commit.
I was able to create an LACP earlier (the config was wiped intentionally) on the Gigabit interfaces no problem, with the same commands (I used ge-0/0/47 and ge-1/0/47 fine). There must be something with these 10GbE ports it doesn't like.
I have followed the tutorial on a Juniper YouTube video which has the same issue. The other tutorial I am following, which is virtually identical is this;
Example: Configuring Aggregated Ethernet Device with LAG and LACP on a Security Device (CLI Procedure)The commands I am using from a blank configuration (other than basic VC setup, all management info setup etc) are;
root# set chassis aggregated-devices ethernet device-count 4
{master:0}[edit]
root# set interfaces xe-0/2/1 ether-options 802.3ad ae0
{master:0}[edit]
root# set interfaces xe-1/2/1 ether-options 802.3ad ae0
{master:0}[edit]
root# set interfaces ae0 aggregated-ether-options lacp active
{master:0}[edit]
root# set interfaces ae0 unit 0 family ethernet-switching
{master:0}[edit]
root# commit
[edit interfaces xe-0/2/1]
'unit 0'
logical unit is not allowed on aggregated links
[edit interfaces xe-1/2/1]
'unit 0'
logical unit is not allowed on aggregated links
error: xSTP configuration disallowed on interface xe-0/2/1 as it is part of an aggregate bundle
error: configuration check-out failed

Any ideas what to try please?
