Re: RSTP on "all" ex4300 Ports

> I really don't understand why juniper did this...hopefully they fix it in upcoming releases.

It seems Juniper doesn't see this as a problem. It's 2016 and still the same. Anyway, Can anyone pls let me know, why this is not working?

set groups VSTP_DEFAULT protocols vstp vlan <*> interface <*>
set protocols vstp apply-groups VSTP_DEFAULT
... other vlans, interfaces, edge ports
set protocols vstp vlan 1000 interface ge-2/0/47 edge
set protocols vstp vlan 1000 interface ae7 edge
set protocols vstp vlan 1000 interface ae8 edge

So do the DEFAULT on all vlans on all interfaces.

If I enter

set protocols vstp vlan 1000 interface ae0

I do see STP running on vlan 1000 on ae0.

ae0                          128:3        128:3  33768.80acac1f4d00         1000    FWD    ROOT

But without that line, I don't.

IMHO "set protocols vstp vlan 1000 interface ae0" should be derived from group "protocols vstp vlan <*> interface <*>".

Why it isn't?

Thanks
