  • 1.  Does Juniper SRX/J Router support the features as the feature of BVI in cisco Router.

    Hi all,

     

    Just like it is possible to enable IRB and create BVI interface on Juniper SRX/J router?

     

    the existing cisco configuration is

     

    interface Serial0/0
     description FR to ME
     no ip address
     no ip redirects
     no ip unreachables
     no ip proxy-arp
     encapsulation frame-relay IETF
     no fair-queue
     no frame-relay inverse-arp
     frame-relay lmi-type ansi
    !
    interface Serial0/0.1 point-to-point
     frame-relay interface-dlci 100 IETF  
     bridge-group 1
     bridge-group 1 spanning-disabled
    !
    interface BVI1
     ip address 192.168.1.1  255.255.255.240

    Hello there,

    The answer is no.

    The closest functionality in JUNOS is called Translational Cross Connect

    http://www.juniper.net/techpubs/en_US/junos11.1/topics/example/tcc-layer-two-five-circuits-frame-relay-ethernet-solutions.html

    I doubt it is supported on SRX/J-series but if even it is supported, it would require packet-mode.

    I know you can do this on the MX.

    In IOS, a BVI (Bridge-Group Virtual Interface) is a routed interface that represents a set of interfaces that gets bridged.  Juniper supports the same thing on MX devices and it is called an IRB (Integrated Routing and Bridging) interface.  On the EX Series this is supported through an RVI (Routed VLAN Interface).

     

    While these are supported for Ethernet bridged interfaces, there is no support for other types of encapsulations (Frame Relay, etc.) on these platforms.
