To congure the VLAN where a VLT peer forwards received packets over the VLTi from an adjacent VLT peer that is down, use the peer-
down-vlan parameter. When a VLT peer with BMP reboots, untagged DHCP discover packets are sent to the peer over the VLTi. Using
this conguration ensures the DHCP discover packets are forwarded to the VLAN that has the DHCP server.
Conguring a VLT VLAN Peer-Down (Optional)
To congure a VLT VLAN peer-down, use the following commands.
1 Enter VLT-domain conguration mode for a specied VLT domain.
CONFIGURATION mode
vlt domain domain-id
The range of domain IDs is from 1 to 1000.
2 Enter the port-channel number that acts as the interconnect trunk.
VLT DOMAIN CONFIGURATION mode
peer-link port-channel id-number
The range is from 1 to 128.
3 Enter the VLAN ID number of the VLAN where the VLT forwards packets received on the VLTi from an adjacent peer that is down.
VLT DOMAIN CONFIGURATION mode
peer-down-vlan vlan interface number
The range is from 1 to 4094.
Congure Multi-domain VLT (mVLT) (Optional)
To congure a multi-domain VLT between two VLT domains on your network, use the following procedure.
For a sample conguration, refer to theMulti-domain VLT section.
1 Congure the port channel to be used for the VLT interconnect on a VLT switch and enter Interface Conguration mode.
CONFIGURATION mode
interface port-channel id-number
Enter the same port-channel number congured with the peer-link port-channel command.
2 Add one or more port interfaces to the port channel.
INTERFACE PORT-CHANNEL mode
channel-member interface
interface species one of the following interface types:
10-Gigabit Ethernet: Enter tengigabitethernet slot/port.
3 Enter VLT-domain conguration mode for a specied VLT domain.
CONFIGURATION mode
vlt domain domain-id
The range of domain IDs is from 1 to 1000.
4 Enter the port-channel number that will act as the interconnect trunk.
