Redundant router-switch connection

Network Engineering

I have the following network: Gateway1 is a dedicated server with Juniper vSRX VM, Switch1 is Juniper QFX5xxx. There are multiple VLANs set up on the servers, so interface mode on the switch is set to trunk. Traffic inside a certain VLAN goes through the switch. InterVLAN traffic is routed through the gateway which has IP address in every VLAN that can be used as a default route on the servers.
