Additional VLT Sample Configurations
To configure VLT, configure a backup link and interconnect trunk, create a VLT domain, configure a
backup link and interconnect trunk, and connect the peer switches in a VLT domain to an attached
access device (switch or server).
Review the following examples of VLT configurations.
Configuring Virtual Link Trunking (VLT Peer 1)
Enable VLT and create a VLT domain with a backup-link and interconnect trunk (VLTi).
Dell_VLTpeer1(conf)#vlt domain 999
Dell_VLTpeer1(conf-vlt-domain)#
peer-link port-channel 100
Dell_VLTpeer1(conf-vlt-domain)#back-up destination 10.11.206.35
Dell_VLTpeer1(conf-vlt-domain)#exit
Configure the backup link.
Configure the VLT interconnect (VLTi).
Configure the port channel to an attached device.
Verify that the port channels used in the VLT domain are assigned to the same VLAN.
Configuring Virtual Link Trunking (VLT Peer 2)
Enable VLT and create a VLT domain with a backup-link VLT interconnect (VLTi).
Dell_VLTpeer2(conf)#vlt domain 999
Dell_VLTpeer2(conf-vlt-domain)#peer-link port-channel 100
Dell_VLTpeer2(conf-vlt-domain)#back-up destination 10.11.206.23
Dell_VLTpeer2(conf-vlt-domain)#exit
Configure the backup link.
Configure the VLT interconnect (VLTi).
Configure the port channel to an attached device.
Verify that the port channels used in the VLT domain are assigned to the same VLAN.
