Key Considerations for Designing a Layer 3 with

Resiliency (Routed VLT) Fabric

To extend equal cost multipathing capabilities, use the Layer 3 with Resiliency (Routed VLT) fabric. When

designing a Layer 3 with Resiliency (Routed VLT) fabric, consider the following:

• You can deploy up to 10 fabric designs. However, the fabric designs do not communicate with each

other.

• AFM manages Dell Networking S4810, S4820T, S6000, Z9000, and Z9500 switches.

NOTE: If you are using a deployed switch, reset the factory settings. The switch must be in BMP

mode.

For more information on BMP, refer to DHCP Integration and the Configuration Guide for the Dell

Networking S4810, S4820T, S6000, Z9000, and Z9500 switches.

The number and type of switches in a Layer 3 with Resiliency (Routed VLT) fabric are based on the

following:

• The number of current uplinks (at least two) and downlinks for the access switches.
