  • 1.  Can you configure interfaces that do not yet exist?

    Posted 01-28-2010 06:38

    On J-Series I am attempting to pre-build a cluster configuration before actually creating the cluster. I am receiving errors when attempting to pre-configure the interfaces that do not yet exist. Does anyone know how to do this?

     

     

    root@router1# set ge-9/0/0

    fpc value outside range 0..6 for '9/0/0' in 'ge-9/0/0'.

    Yes - you can add interfaces that don't exist yet. That is a standard feature.

    You can.  But, with the limitation that the fpc # actually exists in the chassis-type you are configuration it on.  Since the current device is limited to 7 slots [0-6], you will not be able to configure ..-9/./. until slot 9 exists in the device.  This is expected behavior.

    Hi,

     

    Great info provided.  I am preparing configuration for Juniper SRX240 and when assigning "set interfaces ge-5/0/1 gigether-options redundant-parent reth0" I get the same error since the fpc number does ot exist on 240... How would you suggest I go about it?

     

    Thanks

     

    Chris.

    enable the cluster on the first node should do the trick
