Connecting QFX Series and EX Series Switches in a QFX Virtual Chassis
In a QFX Virtual Chassis, you can connect up to 10 standalone QFX5100, QFX3600,
QFX3500, and EX4300 switches into a QFX Series Virtual Chassis and manage the
interconnected switches as a single chassis. Unlike a Virtual Chassis Fabric (VCF), which
is cabled in a spine and leaf topology, the QFX Virtual Chassis is cabled in a ring topology.
For Virtual Chassis Fabric cabling examples, see Connecting a QFX5100 Device in a Virtual
Chassis Fabric.
As of Junos Release 17.3R1, you can also connect select models of the QFX5100 in the
line card role in a QFX5110 Virtual Chassis. See Connecting QFX5110 and QFX5100 Members
in a QFX5110 Virtual Chassis.
This topic describes how to cable QFX Series switches and EX4300 switches into a QFX
Virtual Chassis.
