MC-LAG lab – advanced IRB functionality

For simplified Layer 3 gateway services, where Layer 3 routing protocols are not run on the MC-LAG peers, you simply configure the same Layer 3 gateway IP address on both MC-LAG peers and enable IRB MAC address synchronization. This IP address is used as the default gateway for the MC-LAG servers or hosts.
For more advanced Layer 3 gateway services, where Layer 3 routing protocols and Layer 3 multicast operations are required on the MC-LAG peers, you configure unique IRB interface addresses on each MC-LAG peer and then configured the virtual router redundancy protocol (VRRP) between the peers in an active/standby role.
To help with some forwarding operations, the IRB MAC address of each peer is replicated on the other peer and is installed as a MAC address with the forwarding next hop of the ICL-PL. This is achieved by configuring a static ARP entry for the remote peer.

IRB interfaces configurations:

vQFX1:
irb {
    unit 100 {
        family inet {
            address 172.16.0.1/24 {
                arp 172.16.0.2 l2-interface xe-0/ Continue reading

Reaffirming the Internet as a Force for Good: The Next 25 Years

To mark its 25th Anniversary, the Internet Society is beginning a global dialogue on the impact of the Internet on societies.  So far, we have held discussions at Chatham House in London, and opened up the dialogue in a recent public forum with more than 100 participants from 30 countries across Africa, the Middle East, Europe & Central Asia, Latin America and the Caribbean, and South Asia.
