Slight correction: There are three states for the fpc/pic/port channel-speed setting <no value > - This auto negotiates (and very poorly at that) 10g - This forces the qfx to expect four 10G links. (i.e. xe-0/0/49:0, xe-0/0/49:1 etc.) disable-auto-speed-detection - This forces the qfx to expect a 40G link.

But apparently it forces it to a breakout mode. Cool. Thanks. It seems a best practice is to disable auto-channelization and then force the 10g speed for any breakout?

This is ringing a bell... judging from the comment in my config, have you tried this: chassis { fpc 0 { pic 0 { /* Must explicitly set speed for fan-out interfaces to be recognized */ port 48 { channel-speed 10g; } } } } Jason _______________________________________________ juniper-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp juniper-nsp Info Page - puck.nether.net<https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp> puck.nether.net To see the collection of prior postings to the list, visit the juniper-nsp Archives.
