Be mindful of the software version you are using. We stumbled across a problem on the SRX240 (different class of device, I know). When we SNMP querry a VLAN interface, there was a memory leak. Over time, it caused all control plane memory to be consumed. When that happened, the SRX would stop learning new ARP entries and all kinds of things broke.

We were running Junos 9.6R2 when we first saw the issue. I believe 9.6R3 has a fix for the issue. I'm not sure what (if any) versions of 10.x are impacted.

I'd suggest building one box with your VLAN configuration and watching it for 3-4 weeks. Just be sure to point your supporting systems at it as well. If you suddenly start seeing a log message similar to this, get worried:
/kernel: kmem type tlv_stat using 143048K, exceeding limit 91352K

Hi,
Looking to trunk (vlan tagging) on the SRX 3600 to reduce the number of physical interfaces required. Anyone currently using it that can provide feedback or issues? Good or bad idea?

Doesn't appear to be any details of vlan tagging in the srx docs so not sure if it's officially supported.

TIA,
quoc
