4. Create new VLTi domain and select 100 GbE ports as discovery interfaces. vlt-domain 1 discovery-interface ethernet 1/1/25-1/1/26 ● vlt-domain, and port numbers should be the same on both switches. ● Ports 25 and 26 are both 100 GbE ports on the Dell EMC S4148-ON PowerSwitch Series. Other switches may have different port numbers assigned too 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 management IP address for the backup. ● For switch2, use the switch1 management 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 Switch2. 9. Repeat steps for the second switch. While doing so reverse switch IP address in steps 1 and 5 as demonstrated in the code sample below. Table 17.

When enabling your uplinks to the customer network it is helpful to know that VLTi configurations for PowerStore X model require that port channels are configured for the uplink ports to avoid looping. 54 PowerStore X model: Configure switches

Specify the management IP of the other ToR switch as VLT backup (required for heartbeat).
For switch1, use the switch2 management IP address for the backup.
For switch2, use the switch1 management IP address for the backup.

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.
