Juniper – How to add ip address vlan interface

20 Dec
Juniper EX4200

I’m new to Juniper and it’s my first switch (EX-4200). In this article we will learn about how to add ip address vlan interface on Juniper switch EX series.

Associate a Layer 3 interface with the VLAN. Configure Layer 3 interfaces on trunk ports to allow the interface to transfer traffic between multiple VLANs. Within a VLAN, traffic is bridged, while across VLANs, traffic is routed. www.juniper.net

Here is how to add IP address vlan interface on Juniper EX 4200, firmware version 12.4R:

1. Create layer2  vlan name and vlan id:

# set vlans vlan-name vlan-id vlan-id

Example:

# set vlans vlan100 vlan-id 100

2. Then assign that vlan to an interface:

# set interfaces interface-name unit logical-unit-number family ethernet-switching vlan members vlan-name

Example:

# set interfaces ge-0/0/7 unit 0 family ethernet-switching vlan members vlan100

3. Then create a logical l3 interface and assign that interface to a vlan:

# set interfaces vlan unit logical-unit-number family inet address inet-address

Example:

# set interfaces vlan unit 100 family inet address 10.10.10.1/24

4. The link l3-interface to a vlan:

# set vlans vlan-name l3-interface vlan.logical-interface-number

Example:

# set vlans vlan100 l3-interface vlan.100

Here is the result:

# run show interfaces vlan

    • Hi Jerry,

      If you mean all devices connected to the vlan100 can get IP address 10.10.10.0/24 automatically (DHCP), then the answer is no. To do the DHCP things, you must configure a DHCP server on vlan100.
