How > to verify? Walaa, What Ben is saying is that you it is simply not necessary to configure the AE interface when doing this on a Clustered device. Basically, when you are doing clustering, you simply add multiple ports from the same node to a RETH interface and this bonds them together to create your Link Aggregation Group. To answer your question, load-balancing should happen by default amongst all the ports in the RETH on the Active node. BTW, I've only done this on the High End SRX platforms... I'm not sure if this support exists on the SRX 650. So you may want to check with your account rep or do some digging to determine if this support is provided on the Branch SRX devices. > Also I think that load balancing should be configured on the SRX under > the forwarding option and ECMP policy under forwarding table. You do not need to perform any load balancing policy or ECMP - those are only for situations where you have multiple next-hops for a given destination and require load-balancing in the forwarding table. BTW, an excellent repository of information can be found here which describes just this setup and how to get things running properly - http://www.juniper.net/techpubs/software/junos-security/junos-security10 .1/j unos-security-swconfig-security/jd0e79587.html#jd0e79587 Also, here is an excellent knowledgebase article which describes the exact setup for an SRX650, this might provide you additional assistance as you go through your configuration - http://kb.juniper.net/InfoCenter/index?page=content&id=KB15503 HTHs, Stefan Fouant, CISSP, JNCIEx2 www.shortestpathfirst.net GPG Key ID: 0xB4C956EC _______________________________________________ juniper-nsp mailing list juniper-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp
