interfaces (MACsec)

Syntax

Hierarchy Level

Description

Applies the specified connectivity association to the specified interface to enable MACsec.

One connectivity association can be applied to multiple interfaces.

You must always use this statement to apply a connectivity association to an interface to enable MACsec. You must complete this configuration step regardless of whether MACsec is enabled using static connectivity association key (CAK) security mode or static secure association key (SAK) security mode.

If you are enabling MACsec using static SAK security mode and need to configure MACsec on inbound and outbound traffic on the same interface, you must configure a connectivity association with one secure channel for inbound traffic and a second secure channel for outbound traffic. The connectivity association is then applied to the interface using this statement to enable MACsec for traffic entering and leaving the interface.

Specify chassis cluster fabric interface on which MACsec is enabled. For SRX340, and SRX345 devices, the fabric interface can be any 1 G Ethernet interface. Use this configuration to apply a connectivity association to an interface, which enables Media Access Control Security (MACsec) on that interface.

Default

Interfaces are not associated with any connectivity associations, by default.
