To take advantage of the scalability features of EX2200, EX2200-C, EX3300, EX4200,
EX4300, EX4500, EX4550, and EX4600 switches, you can configure a Virtual Chassis.
EX2200 and EX2200-C Virtual Chassis can include up to four member switches. EX3300
Virtual Chassis include up to six member switches. For Junos OS Release 14.1X53-D10
and later, EX3300 Virtual Chassis include up to 10 member switches. EX4200, EX4300,
EX4500, EX4550, and EX4600 Virtual Chassis can include up to 10 member switches.
You can interconnect the member switches by using dedicated Virtual Chassis ports
(VCPs). You do not have to configure the interface for the dedicated VCPs. If you want
to interconnect member switches that are located in different racks or wiring closets,
interconnect them using 10-gigabit ports (SFP+ uplink module ports or SFP+ network
ports for EX4500) configured as VCPs. EX4300, EX4550, and EX4600 switches support
10-gigabit (SFP+ expansion module ports) and 40-gigabit (QSFP+ uplink module ports
or fixed ports) Ethernet interface. See Setting an Uplink Port on an EX Series Switch as a
Virtual Chassis Port (CLI Procedure).
NOTE: You can form a Virtual Chassis using EX4600 and EX4300 switches.
When in a mixed Virtual Chassis consisting of EX4600 switches and EX4300
switches, the EX4600 switches can be the master, backup, or in the linecard
role, while the EX4300 switches must be in the linecard role.
