Other switches may have different port numbers assigned to the 100 GbE ports. 5. Specify the management IP of the other ToR switch as VLT backup (required for heartbeat). ● For switch1, use the switch2 IP address for the backup. ● For switch2, use the switch1 IP address for the backup. backup destination 100.0.100.11 6. Enable peer-routing to prepare to configure your uplinks. Peer routing enables or disables L3 routing to peers. NOTE: Steps to configure uplinks to the customer networks are not described in this guide. peer-routing 7. Set the priority of the switch. primary-priority 1 Valid priority values range from 1 to 65535. The switch with the lower priority setting will take precedence of the switch with the higher priority value. Do not set the same priority value to the two ToR switches. 8. Enter a VLT MAC address to avoid conflicts on the network. NOTE: You cannot use all zeros (00:00:00:00:00) for the VLT MAC address. vlt-mac 00:00:00:00:00:01 Use the same VLT MAC address when configuring switch 2. 9. Repeat above steps for the second switch. While doing so, reverse the switch IP address in step 5 as demonstrated in the code sample below. Table 7.
