Configuration Tasks for Ethernet

Copyright © 2010, Juniper Networks, Inc.
Use to force a Gigabit Ethernet I/O module to switch operation from one port to the
other.
Select an interface on the Gigabit Ethernet I/O module before you issue this command.
Example
host1(config)#interface gigabitEthernet 5/0
host1(config-if)#link failover force
There is no no version.
See link failover force.
Use to specify the time that the router waits for a port on a GE I/O module to become
active before the router switches to the redundant port.
Select an interface on the GE I/O module before you issue this command.
Specify a time in the range 100–10,000 ms.
Example
host1(config)#interface gigabitEthernet 5/0
host1(config-if)#link failover timeout 1000
Use the no version to restore the default situation in which the router sets this time
automatically.
See link failover timeout.
Use to disable redundancy on a GE I/O module by allowing operation on the specified
port only.
Select an interface on the GE I/O module before you issue this command.
Example
host1(config)#interface gigabitEthernet 5/0
host1(config-if)#link selection secondary
Use the no version to restore the default situation in which port redundancy is enabled.
See link selection.
This section describes the options for configuring Ethernet interfaces.
You configure an Ethernet interface based on the requirements for your router
configuration and the protocols you plan to route on the interface. Because you can
configure an interface in different ways, Ethernet configuration tasks are divided into
three primary areas. These areas are further described in separate sections in this chapter.
