[j-nsp] Question about 100 Gbps MPC4E

Thanks – I’m really not sure to be honest … just seen some weird bugs with LAG over the years and thought it might be worthwhile to eliminate for testing purposes.  This way you at least have one less thing to consider as the source of the issue.

 

I haven’t seen anything like this in 13.3R2 but just getting involved with my first MPC4E 100G port deployments this week so was kind of curious….

 

Cheers,

Paul

Paul, we didnt do this test.

We can do it ... 

But we will need to run in ae5, because the traffic is very high today 90 Gbps and will rise a lot for the next few months.

The junos version is 13.3R2.

Do you think that ae5 configuration is not helping ?

We did the same test, on the same box, with 12 x 10G SFPP (MPC4E) and it works fine.

Thanks a lot,

Giuliano

If you take the 100G port out of LAG does it have any impact on the issue you are seeing?  Can you share software version you are running?

Thanks,
Paul

Adam,

Sorry about delay to answer this post.

We are trying to connect our JUNIPER MX960 router to a IX (Internet Exchange Point).

Once you are connected for the first time, the guys from the IX did a simple test (linux script) .. similar to an limited ARP Spoofing on every single physical port to evaluate the number of MAC answers supported for the router (minimum accepted is 1200). They will connect you to L2 main matrix.

We have another board on this router ... same MPC4E with 32 x 10G SFPP interfaces.  When we did the same ARP Spoofing test using a LAG with 8 x 10G interfaces ... it works fine.

With the new MPC4E board (2 x 100G + 8 x 10G SFPP) the test is not working.
The 100G (et-x/x/x) interface configured inside an AEx logical interface does not answer more than 80 MACs ...

We did every single configuration possible on this board ... but nothing is working.

The router learns the 1200 MACs ... but the answer does not return to the pc machine tester.

I was thinking about some special configuration for this board to do it to work. JUNIPER said that there is not any special configuration needed.

Today we will do a simple test using ettercap and a switch with 10G connections directly to the new board to see if we got something different.

Thanks a lot,

Giuliano
