Statistics for logical child links in aggregated interface on QFX10K
On QFX10k, by default you cannot see the statistics for the logical child links of an aggregated interface.
Based on the family configured(ethernet-switching, inet and so on), you might see some of them(on only some of the child links, on only one direction or some other times, duplicated stats).
To solve the problem, you need to configure a knob on the device to enable the feature.
Let use this diagram:
This is the relevant configuration on QFX10008:
[edit]
root@QFX10008# show interfaces ae0
unit 0 {
family ethernet-switching {
vlan {
members v100;
}
}
}
[edit]
root@QFX10008# show interfaces irb
unit 100 {
family inet {
address 1.1.1.1/24;
}
}
[edit]
root@QFX10008#
And these are the child links of ae0:
[edit]
root@QFX10008# run show interfaces terse | match ae0
et-2/0/0.0 up up aenet --> ae0.0
et-2/0/1.0 up up aenet --> ae0.0
et-2/0/2.0 up up aenet --> ae0.0
ae0 up up
ae0.0 up up eth-switch
[edit]
root@QFX10008#
After clearing the statistics on the interface and sending 1000 ICMP packets from the remote side:
{master:0}
root@EX> ping 1.1.1.1 rapid count 1000
PING 1.1.1.1 (1.1.1.1): 56 data bytes
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
--- 1.1.1.1 ping statistics ---
1000 packets transmitted, 1000 packets received, 0% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max/stddev = 0.890/1.386/36.736/1.743 ms
{master:0}
root@EX>
On et-2/0/0, there are packets only on input direction:

After “fpc-ifl-ae-statistics” is added, the statistics should be populated correctly.
Keep in mind that removing the knob, also removes the statistics.

These are LLDP packets, observe the length of the packet(345). This combined with Ethernet header size(18B), makes 363B:
13:54:02.671748 In
Juniper PCAP Flags [Ext, In], PCAP Extension(s) total length 16
Device Media Type Extension TLV #3, length 1, value: Ethernet (1)
Logical Interface Encapsulation Extension TLV #6, length 1, value: VPLS (49)
Device Interface Index Extension TLV #1, length 2, value: 656
Logical Interface Index Extension TLV #4, length 4, value: 561
-----original packet-----
ec:13:db:c5:7f:c7 > 01:80:c2:00:00:0e, ethertype LLDP (0x88cc), length 359: LLDP, length 345

Hi Paris,
It looks like it solves part of the counters problem. How can we explain though the 2000 output packets – shouldn’t be 1000 instead?
Hi Eduard,
This seems to be a counter bug.
I will try to test again the feature.
Thanks,
Paris
