If I understand your question correctly ... LACP requires a single signaling plane, so the remote devices need to be a virtual-chassis, mc-lag, VSS or some other virtualization technology.
If you use a static LAG, there's no signaling at all, and the above still applies, as the packets have to be reassembled on the remote device. If the remote devices truly are separate, you will just end up black holing the traffic. In this case just using a routing protocol.

So if anyone can help me with documentation or his experience for this task send to me. Thanks in advance. _______________________________________________ juniper-nsp mailing list juniper-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp _______________________________________________ juniper-nsp mailing list juniper-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp
