Junos LAG

This role automatically generates the Junos configuration for one or more aggregated interfaces (LAG) without requiring any interface name to be fed as input.

You only create a group in the inventory file for each LAG interface you wish to configure that contains the devices for which you want to bundle the interfaces together. The name must be lag_bundle_<INT-NUM>, where <INT-NUM> is the number you wish to use for that aggregate interface e.g. lag_bundle_3> would create the aggregate interface ae3.

The role will automatically discover links and interfaces connecting the two devices belonging to the group and create the corresponding configuration.
