    Hi folks,

    Is there away I can connect two juniper switches
    togather with two links between them. Two link I mean primary route and protection route. What kind of config will I put on the switchs to enable them switch traffic when failure occures on one link.

    Just configure both switch interfaces as an AE/LAG.  Search on-line you'll find plenty of docs.

    Yes you could use RTG /(redundant trunk group) defined on one of the switches. ( google for that )
