show virtual-chassis device-topology (MX Series Virtual Chassis)

Syntax

Description

Display information about neighbor reachability for each hardware device in an MX Series Virtual Chassis configuration. On the MX Series router, there is only one active device for each member router. You can issue the show virtual-chassis device-topology command from the console of either member router in the Virtual Chassis.

Options

all-members

(Optional) Display neighbor reachability information for the device in both member routers in a Virtual Chassis configuration.

local

(Optional) Display neighbor reachability information for the device in the member router on which you are issuing the command. This is the default behavior if no options are specified.

member member-id

(Optional) Display neighbor reachability information for the device in the specified Virtual Chassis member router. Replace member-id with the value 0 or 1.

Output Fields

Table 1 lists the output fields for the show virtual-chassis device-topology command. Output fields are listed in the approximate order in which they appear.

Table 1: show virtual-chassis device-topology Output Fields

Field Name

Field Description

membern

Member ID of the Virtual Chassis member router for which output is displayed.

Member

Identifier assigned to the member router in the preprovisioned Virtual Chassis configuration.

Device

Identifier assigned to the device in the member router.

Because there is only one active device per member router in an MX Series Virtual Chassis configuration, the values in the Device and Member fields are identical.

Status

Status of the device:

  • Prsnt—Device is currently connected to the Virtual Chassis.

  • NotPrsnt—Device is not currently connected to the Virtual Chassis.

System ID

Unique identifier derived from the device’s media access control (MAC) address. The System ID is included in each Virtual Chassis Control Protocol (VCCP) packet to identify the packet owner to all members of the Virtual Chassis.

Neighbor List Member/Device/Interface

Member IDs, Device IDs, and Virtual Chassis port interfaces (in the format vcp-slot/pic/port) to which this device is connected.

Sample Output

show virtual-chassis device-topology all-members

show virtual-chassis device-topology local

show virtual-chassis device-topology member 1
