I started working on Juniper equipment around 2002. At my employer, we had an M40 with the serial number 256. We did Layer3 only. I had no idea if the Juniper even did layer2. It certainly wasn’t a layer3 switch like a 6500 like I was used to. It was like a deliciously robust version of any Layer 3 router I’d worked on previously. Over the years Juniper has added a switching line utilizing their FreeBSD based OS, JunOS. All that being said, I’d never really messed with doing a layer2 transit VLAN on a JunOS routing platform. Lets say we want to make 2 VLANs and transit them up through the WAN. Here is how to make it work on an MX: Create the bridge domains:``` set bridge-domains vlan-123 domain-type bridge set bridge-domains vlan-123 vlan-id 123 set bridge-domains vlan-124 domain-type bridge set bridge-domains vlan-123 vlan-id 124
set interfaces xe-1/0/0 description "SW1 xe-1/1/0"
set interfaces xe-1/0/0 mtu 9192
set interfaces xe-1/0/0 unit 0 description "Untagged VLAN 123"
set interfaces xe-1/0/0 unit 0 family bridge interface-mode access
set interfaces xe-1/0/0 unit 0 family bridge vlan-id 123
set interfaces xe-1/0/1 description "SW1 xe-1/1/1"
set interfaces xe-1/0/1 mtu 9192
set interfaces xe-1/0/1 unit 0 description "Untagged VLAN 123"
set interfaces xe-1/0/1 unit 0 family bridge interface-mode access
set interfaces xe-1/0/1 unit 0 family bridge vlan-id 123
set interfaces xe-1/0/2 description "SW2 xe-1/1/2"
set interfaces xe-1/0/2 mtu 9192
set interfaces xe-1/0/2 unit 0 description "Untagged VLAN 124"
set interfaces xe-1/0/2 unit 0 family bridge interface-mode access
set interfaces xe-1/0/2 unit 0 family bridge vlan-id 124
set interfaces xe-1/0/3 description "SW2 xe-1/1/3"
set interfaces xe-1/0/3 mtu 9192
set interfaces xe-1/0/3 unit 0 description "Untagged VLAN 124"
set interfaces xe-1/0/3 unit 0 family bridge interface-mode access
set interfaces xe-1/0/3 unit 0 family bridge vlan-id 124
Now add it to the uplink (that in this case has a layer3 instance on it as well):``` set interfaces et-5/0/0 description “100G North” set interfaces et-5/0/0 vlan-tagging set interfaces et-5/0/0 mtu 9192 set interfaces et-5/0/0 unit 123 description “L3 testing vlan 123” set interfaces et-5/0/0 unit 123 family bridge interface-mode trunk set interfaces et-5/0/0 unit 123 family bridge vlan-id-list 123 set interfaces et-5/0/0 unit 124 description “L3 testing vlan 124” set interfaces et-5/0/0 unit 124 family bridge interface-mode trunk set interfaces et-5/0/0 unit 124 family bridge vlan-id-list 124 set interfaces et-5/0/0 unit 100 description “VLAN100 Layer3 Peering” set interfaces et-5/0/0 unit 100 vlan-id 100 set interfaces et-5/0/0 unit 100 family inet mtu 9000 set interfaces et-5/0/0 unit 100 family inet address 10.100.100.1⁄30 set interfaces et-5/0/0 unit 100 family inet6 mtu 9000 set interfaces et-5/0/0 unit 10 family inet6 address 2001:fd8:a100:100::1⁄64
buraglio@mx480> show bridge domain
Routing instance Bridge domain VLAN ID Interfaces
default-switch vlan-123 123
et-5/0/0.123
xe-1/0/0.0
xe-1/0/1.0
default-switch vlan-124 124
et-5/0/0.124
xe-1/0/2.0
xe-1/0/3.0
That’s it. Pretty straightforward.
