49 Using MLAG in Dell Networking N-Series Switches | version 1.5
9 MLAG with VLT Example
MLAG also works with Virtual Link Trunking (VLT). VLT is a technology similar to MLAG that can be used on
certain Dell switches like the S4810. Figure 12 shows VLT peers on one layer and MLAG peers on the
second layer with a full-mesh LAG. The LAG connecting the two S4810 switches is the VLTi (VLT
interconnect) for the VLT domain. The bottom LAG between the two N4032F switches is the peer link for the
MLAG domain. The top and bottom partner switches may be any switch model.
