Genre

Yesterday, after I just created my blog, I was having a chat with one of my friends, whose blog I follow regularly, I was asking him for a few pointers on how to go ahead with this and he told me to first decide on a "Genre" for the blog. He suggested that it be technical. I think, I will go with his suggestion, but I will try to make it a little less boring and probably digress into other genres as well.... by which I mean, my blog will not have a genre as such but will be mostly oriented towards technology, so do leave out comments which would enable me to make this informative for you ... thanks

Juniper Aggregate Interfaces (LACP/No LACP)

Image
Last week, I was implementing link aggregation on Juniper EX Series switches (EX4200). I was moving them off HP switches and putting them into Juniper. We were moving VMWare ESX boxes, NetApp and some physical boxes, though the configuration is very simple, I would like to mention how to do those with these boxes. Points to remember: You will explicitly need to create “Aggregated Ethernet” interfaces on juniper You cannot have more than 64 AE interfaces on a single Virtual Chassis You cannot change the algorithm for load balancing between the multiple links. (If you are interested in the Junipers LAG algorithm read this ) Now having said this, lets look at the common steps, you need to create the Aggregated Ethernet interfaces on the Juniper. root@EX4200#set chassis aggregated-devices ethernet device-count  4 The above command will create 4 “ae” interfaces, after you commit, you should see ae0 – ae 3 created. You can have any value between 1 and 64 in...

Configuring Multicasting with Juniper EX switches (Part 1)

Image
Configuring multicast routing using Protocol Independent Multicast in a all Juniper environment is as simple as the Cisco environment, but when I searched, I dint find good articles or KB’s explaining this, so I decided to write one. I am fairly certain that if you have searched and arrived at this post, you know the basics of multicasting and IGMP, but yet, for the benefit of all readers, I will in brief describe the need for multicast. Please note, that this is just the IPv4 version of the story presented in a understandable manner and not all aspects of multicast are covered, but only the ones needed for this post. What is Multicast ? In IPv4 we have 3 kinds of packets, Unicast – One Source, One Destination Broadcast – One source and all destinations Multicast – One source and many destinations Now, all of us are familiar with the first one, we use it almost every minute we are on a network connected equipment. To, explain all this, lets choose different ...
