Discussion:
[j-nsp] ether-options vs gigether-options in MX series

Greetings,

I am attempting to create a link aggregation on an MX80.

Reading the documentation it indicates:

ether-options {
802.3ad ae0;
}

To an interface will add that physical link to an aggregation.

However, when I use that and look at the configuration it says:

ether-options {
##
## Warning: This feature can be configured only in Ethernet LAN services mode
## Warning: This feature can be configured only in Ethernet LAN services mode
## Warning: This feature can be configured only in Ethernet LAN services mode
## Warning: This feature can be configured only in Ethernet LAN services mode
## Warning: This feature can be configured only in Ethernet LAN services mode
##
802.3ad ae0;
}
If I use gigether-options it accepts it.

What is the correct way of doing this on an MX80 running v 15?

Thanks,
-Drew

On MX, SRX, PTX, ACX, it's «gigether-options» for all ports.
On EX, QFX, it's «ether-options» for all ports.

Ridiculous.
Does that mean they're the same, even for xe interfaces?

Oh, I see. Okay. Thank you. It wouldn't be as confusing had it said that in the guide on configuring link aggregation.

To make things even more ridiculous it looks like QFX will now have
gigether-options in addition to ether-options. This is where they have put
the FEC knobs:
