Can someone explain what these interfaces are for? I know em0 is used as a management interface on the router to connect via ssh but why are the other two there? I have also noticed, sometimes they have a private address configured by themselves.
What do em0, em1, em2 and em3 interfaces refer to on Juniper routers
