IOM VLT peer link configuration
Note: When you create a VLT domain on a switch, the system automatically assigns a unique unit ID
(0 or 1) to each peer switch. Optionally, the unit ID can be manually configured as shown above to
minimize the time required for the VLT system to determine the unit ID assigned to each peer switch
when one peer switch reboots.
