After you upgrade OS10 from an earlier version with configured VLANs, if you configure the VLAN scale profile and enable L3 routing on VLANs, save the configuration and reload the switch to apply the scale profile settings. Apply VLAN scale profile OS10(config)# scale-profile vlan OS10(config)# interface vlan 10 OS10(conf-if-vl-10)# mode L3 Loopback interfaces A loopback interface is a virtual interface in which the software emulates an interface. Because a loopback interface is not associated to physical hardware entities, the loopback interface status is not affected by hardware status changes. Packets routed to a loopback interface are processed locally to the OS10 device.

Link aggregation is a method of grouping multiple physical interfaces into a single logical interface - a link aggregation group (LAG) or port -channel. A port-channel aggregates the bandwidth of member links, provides redundancy, and load balances traffic. If a member port fails, the OS10 device redirects traffic to the remaining ports. A physical interface can belong to only one port-channel at a time, and a port-channel must contain interfaces of the same interface type and speed. OS10 supports up to 128 port-channels, with up to 32 ports per channel. To configure a port-channel, use the same configuration commands as for Ethernet port interfaces. Port-channels are transparent to network configurations and managed as a single interface. For example, configure one IP address for the group, and use the IP address for all routed traffic on the port-channel. By configuring port channels, you can create larger capacity interfaces by aggregating a group of lower speed links. For example, you can build a 40G interface by aggregating four 10G Ethernet interfaces together - if one of the four interfaces fails, traffic is redistributed across the three remaining interfaces.

Port-channel interfaces

Port-channels are not

conﬁgured

by default. Link aggregation is a method of grouping multiple physical interfaces into a single logical

interface — a link aggregation group (LAG) or port -channel. A port-channel aggregates the bandwidth of member links, provides

redundancy, and load balances

traﬃc.

If a member port fails, the OS10 device redirects

traﬃc

to the remaining ports.

A physical interface can belong to only one port-channel at a time, and a port-channel must contain interfaces of the same interface type

and speed. OS10 supports up to 128 port-channels, with up to 32 ports per channel.

conﬁgure

a port-channel, use the same

conﬁguration

commands as for Ethernet port interfaces. Port-channels are transparent to

network

conﬁgurations

and managed as a single interface. For example,

conﬁgure

one IP address for the group, and use the IP address for

all routed

traﬃc

on the port-channel.

conﬁguring

port channels, you can create larger capacity interfaces by aggregating a group of lower speed links. For example, you can

build a 40G interface by aggregating four 10G Ethernet interfaces together — if one of the four interfaces fails,

traﬃc

is redistributed

across the three remaining interfaces.
