I am curious with a EX4200 as to the requirements of the uplink ports when attempting to use VCT / VCCP. Juniper documentation says a 1000BaseTX SFP module is unable to be used however I have been told that this does in fact work and the documentation may not have caught up yet?
the information I have is that the extended VC links must be optical. .
I am also curious as to the requirements of the fibre uplink ports. If we are purchasing carrier services does it have to be a dark fibre link or are we able to use VCT over a Carrier VPLS 1G Ethernet service (LX/LH/SX)? We are hoping to VCT a number of chassis over a 30km distance.
AFAIK, VCCP uses non-standard Ethernet frames and there must not be any L2 (and up) devices in the VC link path as these devices would drop the VCCP frames.
