In the following sample VLT configuration steps, VLT peer 1 is S5000-2, VLT peer 2 is S5000-4, and the
ToR is S60-1.
NOTE: To avoid potential problems if the VLT peers are rebooted, if you use a third-party ToR unit,
Dell Networking recommends using static LAGs with VLT peers.
Configure the VLT domain with the same ID in VLT peer 1 and VLT peer 2.
S5000-2(conf)#vlt domain 5
S5000-2(conf-vlt-domain)#
S5000-4(conf)#vlt domain 5
S5000-4(conf-vlt-domain)#
Configure the VLTi between VLT peer 1 and VLT peer 2.
1. P/Static LAG can be configured between the peer units (not shown).
2. Configure the peer-link port-channel in the VLT domains of each peer unit.
S5000-2(conf)#interface port-channel 1
S5000-2(conf-if-po-1)#channel-member TenGigabitEthernet 0/4-7
S5000-4(conf)#interface port-channel 1
S5000-4(conf-if-po-1)#channel-member TenGigabitEthernet 0/4-7
Configure the backup link between the VLT peer units.
1. Configure the peer 2 management ip/ interface ip for which connectivity is present in VLT peer 1.
2. Configure the peer 1 management ip/ interface ip for which connectivity is present in VLT peer 2.
