VLAN Commands
6 – 75
set vlan tunnel-affinity
Changes an MX preferences within a mobility domain for tunneling user traffic for a VLAN. When
a user roams to an MX that is not a member of the user’s VLAN, the MX can forward the user
traffic by tunneling to another MX that is a member of the VLAN.
Syntax set vlan vlan-id tunnel-affinity affinity
Defaults Each VLAN on an MX network ports has an affinity value of 5 by default.
Access Enabled.
History Introduced in MSS Version 1.0.
Usage Increasing a MX affinity value increases the preferability of the MX for forwarding user
traffic for the VLAN.
If more than one MX has the highest affinity value, MSS randomly selects one of the switches for
the tunnel.
Examples The following command changes the VLAN affinity for VLAN beige to 10:
MX# set vlan beige tunnel-affinity 10
success: change accepted.
