  • 1.  vQFX interfaces with colon (xe-0/0/1:1)

    Posted 12-15-2018 13:35

    I see xe-0/0/1 through xe-0/0/11 interfaces show up in terse but when I show the configuration I see extra interfaces with colons and a number. It adds a ton of extra configs. When try to delete all interfaces and then just recreate the interfaces without colons the interfaces don't show up in terse and traffic stops working. I have to zeroize to get it working again.

     

    What does the colon mean?

     

        xe-0/0/1 {                          
            unit 0 {                        
                family inet {               
                    dhcp {                  
                        vendor-id Juniper-qfx10002-72q;
                    }                       
                }                           
            }                               
        }                                   
        xe-0/0/1:0 {                        
            unit 0 {

    They are 40Gb interfaces channelized to operate as individual 10Gb interfaces.
