7.1.3 Configure VLT
Use hundredGigE interfaces for the VLTi between the two leaf switches. This example uses hundredGigE
1/53 and 1/54. Create a port channel for the VLTi, 127 in this example, and add the interfaces using the
channel-member command.
Create the VLT domain and add the VLTi port channel to the domain. The backup destination is the OOB
management IP address of the VLT peer switch. Configure a different unit ID (0 or 1) on each switch and
enable peer routing.
Note: Dell EMC Networking recommends that the VLTi is configured as a static LAG, without LACP, per the
commands shown. For more information on VLT, see the Dell Networking OS Configuration Guide for the
S5048F-ON System.
