www.dell.com | support.dell.com The untagged VLAN used for the uplink LAG is always the default VLAN. Server-Facing LAGs The tagged VLAN membership of a server-facing LAG is automatically configured based on the server-facing ports that are members of the LAG. The untagged VLAN of a server-facing LAG is configured based on the untagged VLAN to which the lowest numbered server-facing port in the LAG belongs. Tip: Dell Force10 recommends that you configure the same VLAN membership on all LAG member ports. Stacking Mode When you configure an Aggregator to operate in stacking mode (See "Configuring and Bringing Up a Stack" in the Dell Force10 Configuration Guide for the M I/O Aggregator), VLANs are reconfigured as follows: If an Aggregator port belonged to all 4094 VLANs in standalone mode (default), all VLAN membership is removed and the port is assigned only to default VLAN 1. You must configure additional VLAN membership as necessary. If you had manually configured an Aggregator port to belong to one or more VLANs (non-default) in standalone mode, the VLAN configuration is retained in stacking mode only on the master switch. When you reconfigure an Aggregator from stacking to standalone mode: Aggregator ports that you manually configured for VLAN membership in stacking mode retain their VLAN configuration in standalone mode. To restore the default auto-VLAN mode of operation (in which all ports are members of all 4094 VLANs) on a port, enter the auto vlan command; for example: FTOS(conf)# interface tengigabitethernet 0/2 FTOS(conf-if-te-0/2)# auto vlan Where to Go From Here You can customize the Aggregator for use in your data center network as necessary. To perform additional switch configuration, do one of the following: • For remote out-of-band management, enter the OOB management interface IP address into a Telnet or SSH client and log in to the switch using the user ID and password to access the CLI. • For local management using the CLI, use the attached console connection. • For remote in-band management from a network management station, enter the VLAN IP address of the management port and log in to the switch to access the CLI. If you installed the Aggregator in a stack, you can configure additional settings for switch stacking. 10 | Before You Start

The untagged VLAN used for the uplink LAG is always the default VLAN.
Server-Facing LAGs
The tagged VLAN membership of a server-facing LAG is automatically configured based on the
server-facing ports that are members of the LAG.
The untagged VLAN of a server-facing LAG is configured based on the untagged VLAN to which the
lowest numbered server-facing port in the LAG belongs.
Tip
: Dell Force10 recommends that you configure the same VLAN membership on all LAG member
ports.
Stacking Mode
When you configure an Aggregator to operate in stacking mode (See “Configuring and Bringing Up a
Stack” in the
Dell Force10 Configuration Guide for the M I/O Aggregator
), VLANs are reconfigured
as follows:
If an Aggregator port belonged to all 4094 VLANs in standalone mode (default), all VLAN
membership is removed and the port is assigned only to default VLAN 1. You must configure
additional VLAN membership as necessary.
If you had manually configured an Aggregator port to belong to one or more VLANs (non-default) in
standalone mode, the VLAN configuration is retained in stacking mode only on the master switch.
When you reconfigure an Aggregator from stacking to standalone mode:
Aggregator ports that you manually configured for VLAN membership in stacking mode retain their
VLAN configuration in standalone mode.
To restore the default auto-VLAN mode of operation (in which all ports are members of all 4094
VLANs) on a port, enter the auto vlan command; for example:
Where to Go From Here
You can customize the Aggregator for use in your data center network as necessary. To perform
additional switch configuration, do one of the following:
•
For remote out-of-band management, enter the OOB management interface IP address into a
Telnet or SSH client and log in to the switch using the user ID and password to access the CLI.
•
For local management using the CLI, use the attached console connection.
•
For remote in-band management from a network management station, enter the VLAN IP address
of the management port and log in to the switch to access the CLI.
If you installed the Aggregator in a stack, you can configure additional settings for switch stacking.
