Juniper vQFX 12 port limitation

Post by eddie4 » Tue Jun 08, 2021 8:24 am

Hello all,

I have a question about the Juniper vQFX. I made a script that pulls our infrastructure from librenms and converts it to eve-ng template.
But I seem to have run into an issue that I can only have 10/12 ports. If you do ifconfig on qfx-FE it only goes upto eth9. If you do ifconfig -a there are 52.

Ps. I did have to fix some stuff in eve-ng to connect this many ports to qemu. By adding a pci-bus but even ports on the primary bus are not detected.

Seems to state rather clearly there is a 12 port limitation. (If only I read this before).

But hope remains I have been put in contact with someone who is supposedly running more than 12 ports on there vqfx.
