Connecng EX4600 Switches in a Virtual Chassis
EX4600 switches can be cabled together to create a Virtual Chassis in a ring topology. Each Virtual
Chassis can have up to 10 switches (members) parcipang in the ring. The Virtual Chassis can be
comprised of all EX4600 switches lling the primary Roung Engine (RE), backup RE, and linecard roles.
You can also add EX4300 switches to the Virtual Chassis in the primary or backup roles.
Virtual Chassis can be installed in a single rack, mulple rack, or in wire closets.
You congure an EX4600 Virtual Chassis by conguring the SFP+ or QSFP+ interfaces into Virtual
Chassis ports (VCPs). VCPs connect switches together to form a Virtual Chassis, and are responsible for
passing all data and control trac between member switches in the Virtual Chassis. All non-channelized
