Configuring Port-channel 44 between Host and VDX switches
Configuration on RB21
BRCD6740-RB21(config)# interface port-channel 44
BRCD6740-RB21(config-Port-channel-44)# mtu 9216
BRCD6740-RB21(config-Port-channel-44)# no shutdown
BRCD6740-RB21(config-Port-channel-44)# interface
TenGigabitEthernet 21/0/21
BRCD6740-RB21(conf-if-gi-21/0/21)# channel-group 44 mode on
Note: The mode “on” configures the interface as a static vLAG.
Configuration on RB22
BRCD6740-RB22# configure terminal
BRCD6740-RB22(config)# interface port-channel 44
BRCD6740-RB22(config-Port-channel-44)# mtu 9216
BRCD6740-RB22(config-Port-channel-44)# no shutdown
BRCD6740-RB22(config-Port-channel-44)# interface
TenGigabitEthernet 22/0/21
BRCD6740-RB22(conf-if-te-22/0/21)# channel-group 44 mode on

Configuration on RB22
BRCD6740-RB22# configure terminal
BRCD6740-RB22(config)# interface port-channel 55
BRCD6740-RB22(config-Port-channel-55)# mtu 9216
BRCD6740-RB22(config-Port-channel-55)# no shutdown
BRCD6740-RB22(config-Port-channel-55)# interface
TenGigabitEthernet 22/0/22
BRCD6740-RB22(conf-if-te-22/0/22)# channel-group 55 mode on
Repeat steps for configuring Port-channel 55 between ESXi Host Band VDX
switches, based on Figure 45.
