  • 1.  Increase the amount of aggregated devices / best practice

    Posted 12-12-2019 00:09

    Hi guys,

    just two quick questions:

    1)
    Running a VC of 3 EX4300. I will need to increase the amount of aggregated interfaces.
    Can I increase the amount of aggregated devices within the config during normal operation, or will this lead to an impact of the currently running
    aggregated interfaces ?

    2)
    What is the best practice for working with aggregated interfaces ?
    Scenario A) Increase the amount of aggregated devices -> commit -> add the AE-Interfaces and assign the pyhiscal interfaces to that ae-bundle -> commit
    Scenario B) Increase the amount of aggregated devices / add the AE-Interfaces and assign the pyhiscal interfaces to that ae-bundle -> commit (all within one commit)

    Thanks !

    Regards, Christoph

    Hi Christoph,

     

    Please find my comments inline :

     

    1) There wont be any impact while increasing the AE bundles.

       You may need to increase the device-count using below command to configure more AE bundles:

      #set chassis aggregated-devices ethernet device-count 

     

    2)You can go ahead with plan B all on a single commit , this shouldnt have any impact

     

    Hope this helps

     

    Regards,

    Ajo Thomas
