13.2+ code is also needed if you have 40GE uplink modules in the
switches, lower versions don't support them.

I'm not sure this is the same issue - TTBOMK the standard routing on
J-series doesn't require a licence and I saw the issue you describe at
least as far back as 2010... I never tried setting the clock back

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.

I'm sure the EX is the same as well.  The maximum latency is 100ms.


I don't know about the MX but this whitepaper:
http://www.juniper.net/us/en/local/pdf/implementation-guides/8010045-en.pdf
says that EX VC uses non-standard MAC framing. It's the only bit of 
documentation that mentiones that, though

Latency is a consideration given your control-plane is not

That is a problem when they're all in the same  rack and there's a 
ring of stacking cables, it's a bigger problem at considerable 
remove.


Partitioning is a problem, but I'd likely provision the remote 
switches in the line card role. If the WAN links get interrupted,
you'll lose the remote bit but you would have anyway. 
(I actually have a requirement for this setup, but at least it is

in the same city...)

finally while your  mtbf is about the same for 8 seperate 
switches vs 8 in a stack the impact on overall availability due to 
stack failure is much greater.


Only if the entire stack fails - this should not be the case in an
EX VC setup - I've had single switches fail but the rest of the stack 
kept pushing traffic.

I'd say the fact that the ASPATH contains a loop results in the route being

IIRC that is default behaviour in JunOS

The J series interfaces don't always show errors when there is

5% p/loss seems low for a duplex issue on a busy port though.
