Problem setting up ESI LAG interface

  • 1.  Problem setting up ESI LAG interface

    Posted 27 days ago

    Hello,

    I am trying to set a LAG interface between my leaf1 and leaf 2 devices in a EVPN-VXLAN topology. Problem is LAG interface shows status down:

    lab@leaf1> show interfaces ae0                      
    Physical interface: ae0, Enabled, Physical link is Down
      Interface index: 662, SNMP ifIndex: 557
      Link-level type: Ethernet, MTU: 1514, Speed: Unspecified, BPDU Error: None, Ethernet-Switching Error: None, MAC-REWRITE Error: None, Loopback: Disabled,

      Logical interface ae0.0 (Index 562) (SNMP ifIndex 558)

    lab@leaf1> show lacp interfaces ae0 
    Aggregated interface: ae0
        LACP state:       Role   Exp   Def  Dist  Col  Syn  Aggr  Timeout  Activity

        LACP protocol:        Receive State  Transmit State          Mux State 
          xe-0/0/4                Defaulted   Fast periodic           Detached

    • Not sure why one of them shows in passive as both are configured to be active.
    • The configuration on both devices is the same in almost any mean, but the ips of the BGP peers.

    This is the config I have on bot devices:

    Leaf 1:

    lab@leaf1> show configuration interfaces ae0 | display set 
    set interfaces ae0 esi auto-derive lacp
    set interfaces ae0 esi all-active
    set interfaces ae0 aggregated-ether-options lacp active
    set interfaces ae0 aggregated-ether-options lacp system-id 01:01:01:01:01:01
    set interfaces ae0 unit 0 family ethernet-switching vlan members v10

    {master:0}
    lab@leaf1> show configuration interfaces xe-0/0/4 | display set                                                                                                       
    set interfaces xe-0/0/4 gigether-options 802.3ad ae0

    Leaf 2:

    lab@leaf2# show interfaces ae0 | display set 
    set interfaces ae0 esi auto-derive lacp
    set interfaces ae0 esi all-active
    set interfaces ae0 aggregated-ether-options lacp active
    set interfaces ae0 aggregated-ether-options lacp system-id 01:01:01:01:01:01
    set interfaces ae0 unit 0 family ethernet-switching vlan members v10

    {master:0}[edit]
    lab@leaf2# show interfaces xe-0/0/4 | display set 
    set interfaces xe-0/0/4 gigether-options 802.3ad ae0

    Can anyone tell me why the ae interface does not want to come up.
