Logical Systems and Physical Interfaces Conntection

[Abturki]

Hello,

I have two logical systems configured on m7i router, I want to connect both LSs through two physical interfaces on the same router (fe-0/0/0 and fe0/1/0): My configs on both interfaces like:

R1)

root@JNCIE-SP# run show configuration logical-systems R1
interfaces {
    fe-0/0/0 {
        unit 1 {
            vlan-id 111;
            family inet {
                address 10.0.5.1/24;
            }
        }
    }

}

P1)

root@JNCIE-SP# run show configuration logical-systems P1   
interfaces {
    fe-0/1/0 {
        unit 1 {
            vlan-id 111;
            family inet {
                address 10.0.5.254/24;
            }
        }
    }

}

However, when I ping from R1 to P1 I got the following message "ping: sendto: Can't assign requested address"

What's the reason for that?

Hello there,

Please try

ping 10.0.5.254 source 10.0.5.1 logical-system R1

If you want, you can also lock your CLI to a logical-router:

erdems@cartman> set cli logical-router LR1   
Logical router: LR1

erdems@cartman:LR1> 

erdems@cartman:LR1> clear cli logical-router 
Cleared default logical router

erdems@cartman> set cli logical-router LR2    
Logical router: LR2

erdems@cartman:LR2> clear cli logical-router 
Cleared default logical router

erdems@cartman> 

  I believe this to be useful especially when you need to spend some significant amount of time on a LR.

 Cheers,

Thanks for your help.

The problem solved after adding the <vlan tagging> under the physical interface.
