An all EX4300 member is simply considered an EX4300 Virtual Chassis. See
Understanding EX4300 Virtual Chassis
.
BEST PRACTICE:
Use the 40-Gigabit QSFP+ interfaces for the Virtual Chassis
Ports.
If the QSFP+ interfaces are not available for VCP, 10-Gigbit interfaces can be used.
All members of the Virtual Chassis are required to run the same Junos OS Release. You
can check the version and release by issuing the
show chassis version
CLI command.
Cabling QFX3500 Switches in a QFX Virtual Chassis
Figure 60 on page 191
is the preferred cabling method using the 40-Gigabit QSFP ports.
See
Figure 61 on page 192
for an alternative method using the 10-Gigabit SFP+ ports.
