[j-nsp] routing instances on EX2300

[Valentini, Lucio]

Hi there,

I was trying to configure routing instances on the EX2300, like I did on the EX4300, but it seems it´s not possible.

I compare the EX4300 and the EX2300; as far as the licenses are concerned, the output of the command "show system license" is almost the same. I say almost, because in the column "Licenses used" I see ospf2 and virtual router for the Ex4300, as shown below,

but I don´t get that on the EX2300, where I get all zeros, even though the configuration is the same (2 routing instances with ospf, other than the main).

However, when I go into configuration mode on the EX4300, I get this

# set routing-?
Possible completions:
> routing-instances    Routing instance configuration
> routing-options      Protocol-independent routing option configuration
{master:0}[edit]

The configuration includes:

set routing-instances Didattica instance-type virtual-router
set routing-instances Didattica interface irb.204
set routing-instances Didattica interface irb.101
set routing-instances Didattica routing-options router-id 10.245.2.190
set routing-instances Didattica protocols ospf spf-options delay 800
set routing-instances Didattica protocols ospf spf-options holddown 4000
set routing-instances Didattica protocols ospf export Export-Statics
set routing-instances Didattica protocols ospf area 0.0.0.0 interface irb.204 interface-type p2p

and it works OK.
But when I do the same on the EX2300, I get this:
w# set routing-?
Possible completions:
> routing-options      Protocol-independent routing option configuration
{master:0}[edit]

As you can see, only 1 completion is possible. It accepts the same snippet above, without giving any error, but it does not work.

Can you confirm that ? or else, how can I get 2 routing instances to work on the EX2300, together with the main instance ?

Thanks

Cheers

Lucio
