Usage Information
LACP on the VLT ports (on a VLT switch or access device), which are members of the virtual link trunk, is
not brought up until the VLT domain is recognized on the access device.
On the S4810, during boot-up in a stacking conguration, the system must be able to reach the DHCP
server with the boot image and conguration image. During boot-up, only untagged DHCP requests are sent
to the DHCP server to receive an oer on static LAGs between switches. The DHCP server must be
congured to start in BMP mode. If switches are connected using LACP port-channels like the VLT peer and
Top of Rack (ToR), use the port-channel parameter on the ToR-side conguration to allow member ports of
an ungrouped LACP port-channel to inherit vlan membership of that port channel to ensure untagged
packets that are sent by a VLT peer device reach the DHCP server located on the ToR.
To ungroup the VLT and port-channel congurations, use the no lacp ungroup member independent
command on a VLT port channel, depending on whether the port channel is VLT or non-VLT.
