(Optional) Configure Enhanced VLT (eVLT)
Step Task
11 Ensure that the port channel is active.
Add links to the eVLT port.
12 Configure a range of interfaces to bulk configure.
13 Enable LACP on the LAN port.
14 Configure the LACP port channel mode.
15 Ensure that the interface is active.
16 Repeat steps 1 through 15 for the VLT peer node in Domain 1.
17 Repeat steps 1 through 15 for the first VLT node in Domain 2.
18 Repeat steps 1 through 15 for the VLT peer node in Domain 2.
To verify the configuration of a VLT domain, enter any of the
VLT Configuration.
Task
1. Configure the VLT domain with
the same ID in VLT peer 1 and
VLT peer 2
Configure the VLTi between VLT peer 1 and VLT peer 2.
2. LACP/Static LAG can be config-
ured between the peer units (not
shown).
Note: To benefit from the protocol negotiations, Dell Force10 recommends VLTs used as facing hosts/switches are
configured with LACP. Both peers should use the same port channel ID.
3. Configure the peer-link port-chan-
nel in the VLT domains of each
peer unit.
Configure the backup link between the VLT peer units.
4. Configure the peer 2 management
ip/ interface ip for which connec-
tivity is present in VLT peer 1.
