Release Information

Statement introduced before Junos OS Release 7.4.

Option max-sessions-vsa-ignore introduced in Junos OS Release 11.4.

Description

Configure protocol family information for the logical interface.

Note: Not all subordinate stanzas are available to every protocol family.

Options

family—Protocol family:

  • any—Protocol-independent family used for Layer 2 packet filtering

    Note: This option is not supported on T4000 Type 5 FPCs.

  • bridge—(M Series and T Series routers only) Configure only when the physical interface is configured with ethernet-bridge type encapsulation or when the logical interface is configured with vlan-bridge type encapsulation
  • ccc—Circuit cross-connect protocol suite
  • inet—Internet Protocol version 4 suite
  • inet6—Internet Protocol version 6 suite
  • iso—International Organization for Standardization Open Systems Interconnection (ISO OSI) protocol suite
  • mlfr-end-to-end—Multilink Frame Relay FRF.15
  • mlfr-uni-nni—Multilink Frame Relay FRF.16
  • multilink-ppp—Multilink Point-to-Point Protocol
  • mpls—Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS)
  • pppoe—Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet
  • tcc—Translational cross-connect protocol suite
  • tnp—Trivial Network Protocol
  • vpls—(M Series and T Series routers only) Virtual private LAN service
