72 Using MLAG in Dell Networking N-Series Switches | version 1.5
A.6 MLAG and VLT Example
Run the show vpc brief command on one of the MLAG peers to display information for the MLAG
peers.
Notes:
1. Interfaces used to connect each peer to the partner switch LAG are not required to match on each peer. For
instance, in the example above, one partner LAG interface connects to 1/0/47 on the primary peer while the
other interface connects to 1/0/11 on the secondary peer. The peers can use different ports
2. Configurations on the partner switches must include LAGs and connections to the MLAG Peers, or the
“Number of VPCs operational” in the show vlt brief command show 0.
