Enabling VLAN Shaping and Scheduling on Aggregated Interfaces
Virtual LAN (VLAN) shaping (per-unit scheduling) is supported on aggregated Ethernet interfaces when link protection is enabled on the aggregated Ethernet interface. When VLAN shaping is configured on aggregate Ethernet interfaces with link protection enabled, the shaping is applied to the active child link.
To configure link protection on aggregated Ethernet interfaces,
include the link-protection statement at the [edit
interfaces aex aggregated-ether-options] hierarchy level.
Traffic passes only through the designated primary link. This
includes transit traffic and locally generated traffic on the router.
When the primary link fails, traffic is routed through the backup
link. You also can reverse traffic, from the designated backup link
to the designated primary link. To revert back to sending traffic
to the primary designated link when traffic is passing through the
designated backup link, use the revert command. For example, request interfaces revert ae0.
To configure a primary and a backup link, include the primary and backup statements at the [edit interfaces ge-fpc/pic/port gigether-options 802.3ad aex] hierarchy
level or the [edit interfaces xe-fpc/pic/port fastether-options 802.3ad
aex] hierarchy level.
To disable link protection, delete the link-protection statement at [edit interfaces aex aggregated-ether-options
link-protection] hierarchy level. To display the active, primary,
and backup link for an aggregated Ethernet interface, use the operational
mode command show interfaces redundancy aex.
Figure 1 shows how the flow of traffic changes from primary to backup when the primary link in an aggregate bundle fails.
This example configures two Gigabit Ethernet interfaces
(primary and backup) as an aggregated Ethernet
bundle (ae0) and enables link protection so that a shaping
rate can be applied to VLANs on the aggregated Ethernet interface.
