    The uplink ports labeled 2 and 3 (interfaces ge-0/1/2 and ge-0/1/3 or xe-0/1/2 and xe-0/1/3) are configured by default as VCPs on EX 3300. You can use these uplink ports to interconnect Virtual Chassis members. To use uplink ports 2 and 3 as network ports, you must configure them as network ports first.

    Good Day,

    If i remember correctly those port are by default set as VPC ports for virtual chassis. Just check online how to disable them or delete ports from VCP and they will return as normal interfaces. You can run the command show virtual chassis vc-ports and it should show those ports listed as VCP ports before deleting them.

    Thanks,

    Hello team,

    Thanks for your support..... the issue was resolved by removing the ports from VCP.
