Behavior at Peer Up
A syslog error message
and an SNMP trap is
generated when the
VLTi bandwidth usage
goes above the 80%
threshold and when it
drops below 80%.
The VLT peer does not
boot up. The VLTi is
forced to a down state.

Action to Take
Depending on the traffic
that is received, the
traffic can be offloaded
inVLTi.
Verify the domain ID
matches on both VLT
peers.
Follow the correct
upgrade procedure for
the unit with the

may occur as long as
the mismatch lasts.
To resolve, enable RSTP
on both VLT peers.
