  • 1.  100G support on MX204

    Posted 23 days ago

    Good morning

    I am working to enable 100Gig interface on our MX204.    I have found community documentation online referencing the commands below and then offline and online commands.   I keep getting an error message after offline /online about invalid pic/port config.  I am looking to see if anyone else has run into this or has additional recommendations.  Thank you in advance!

    https://community.juniper.net/discussion/trouble-enabling-100g-port

    Unfortunately, I keep getting an error message.

    FPC 0 has invalid pic/port config, cannot online PIC 0 of FPC 0

    Commands to set 100g

    How about sharing the hardware details?

    This is a physical MX 204.   We were able to get the interfaces up and config, but setting the speed for all interfaces.  All the examples I found online and what I tried was to set:

    set chassis fpc 0 pic 0 port 0 speed 100g

    set chassis fpc 0 pic 0 port 1 speed 100g

    Has anyone else experienced the need to set all interface speeds or is this standard operating procedure? 

    Our working configuration.

    To get it to work we had to set them all. 

    set chassis fpc 0 pic 0 port 0 speed 100g

    set chassis fpc 0 pic 0 port 1 speed 100g

    set chassis fpc 0 pic 0 port 2 speed 40g

    set chassis fpc 0 pic 0 port 3 speed 40g

    set chassis fpc 0 pic 1 port 0 speed 10g

    set chassis fpc 0 pic 1 port 1 speed 10g

    set chassis fpc 0 pic 1 port 2 speed 10g

    set chassis fpc 0 pic 1 port 3 speed 10g

    set chassis fpc 0 pic 1 port 4 speed 10g

    set chassis fpc 0 pic 1 port 5 speed 10g

    set chassis fpc 0 pic 1 port 6 speed 10g

    set chassis fpc 0 pic 1 port 7 speed 10g

    Note that you can use maximum 400G of total port capacity.

    It's been a while since I first started working with the MX204 from years ago, so I don't recall the growing pains/learning curve I had to climb as to why I do what I do now... but I do have a standard initial config from my 204's similar to what you shared....  also, as a side note, the xe-0/1/x interfaces created by this, can work as 1g, but require a interface-level 1g speed command, and *still* remain as xe-type interfaces

    set chassis fpc 0 pic 0 port 0 speed 100g
    set chassis fpc 0 pic 0 port 1 speed 100g
    set chassis fpc 0 pic 0 port 2 speed 40g
    set chassis fpc 0 pic 0 port 3 speed 40g
    set chassis fpc 0 pic 1 port 0 speed 10g
    set chassis fpc 0 pic 1 port 1 speed 10g
    set chassis fpc 0 pic 1 port 2 speed 10g
    set chassis fpc 0 pic 1 port 3 speed 10g
    set chassis fpc 0 pic 1 port 4 speed 10g
    set chassis fpc 0 pic 1 port 5 speed 10g
    set chassis fpc 0 pic 1 port 6 speed 10g
    set chassis fpc 0 pic 1 port 7 speed 10g

    Hi James

    To enable 4 x 100G on the MX204 use this and reboot :-)

    set chassis fpc 0 pic 0 pic-mode 100G
    set chassis fpc 0 pic 0 port 0 number-of-sub-ports 1
    set chassis fpc 0 pic 0 port 1 number-of-sub-ports 1
    set chassis fpc 0 pic 0 port 2 number-of-sub-ports 1
    set chassis fpc 0 pic 0 port 3 number-of-sub-ports 1
    set chassis fpc 0 pic 1 number-of-ports 0

    Hi James

    4 x 100G on the MX204, and remember to reload.

    set chassis fpc 0 pic 0 pic-mode 100G
    set chassis fpc 0 pic 0 port 0 number-of-sub-ports 1
    set chassis fpc 0 pic 0 port 1 number-of-sub-ports 1
    set chassis fpc 0 pic 0 port 2 number-of-sub-ports 1
    set chassis fpc 0 pic 0 port 3 number-of-sub-ports 1
    set chassis fpc 0 pic 1 number-of-ports 0

    Thank you to everyone for the assistance the configuration references.  It appears I created my issue, by only configuring ports 0 and 1 of PIC 0

    All of the shared configuration examples showed both PICs and ports configured.  Once we switched to configuring all ports the error cleared. 

    I also found this line in the document shared by Francisco:  

    On an MX204 router, there are two line card- MIC (PIC1) and fixed-port PIC (PIC0). You must configure both the PICs and all the associated ports, under the [edit chassis] hierarchy. Configuring ports on only one of the PICs results in an invalid configuration.
