64 Virtual Link Trunking (VLT) Virtual link trunking (VLT) allows physical links between two chassis to appear as a single virtual link to the network core. VLT eliminates the requirement for Spanning Tree protocols by allowing link aggregation group (LAG) terminations on two separate distribution or core switches, and by supporting a loop-free topology. VLT provides Layer 2 multipathing, creating redundancy through increased bandwidth and enabling multiple parallel paths between nodes and load-balancing traffic where alternative paths exist. NOTE: When you launch the VLT link, the VLT peer-ship is not established if any of the following is TRUE: • The VLT System-MAC configured on both the VLT peers do not match. • The VLT Unit-Id configured on both the VLT peers are identical. • The VLT System-MAC or Unit-Id is configured only on one of the VLT peers. • The VLT domain ID is not the same on both peers. If the VLT peer-ship is already established, changing the System-MAC or Unit-Id does not cause VLT peer-ship to go down. Also, if the VLT peer-ship is already established and the VLT Unit-Id or System-MAC are configured on both peers, then changing the CLI configurations on the VLT Unit-Id or System-MAC is rejected if any of the following become TRUE: • After making the CLI configuration change, the VLT Unit-Id becomes identical on both peers. • After making the CLI configuration change, the VLT System-MAC do not match on both peers. When the VLT peer-ship is already established, you can remove the VLT Unit-Id or System-MAC configuration from either or both peers. However, removing configuration settings can cause the VLT ports to go down if you configure the Unit-Id or System-MAC on only one of the VLT peers. back-up destination Configure the IPv4 or IPv6 address of the management interface on the remote VLT peer used as the VLT backup link endpoint for sending out-of-band (OOB) hello messages. Syntax Parameters back-up destination {[ipv4-address] | [ipv6 ipv6-address] [interval seconds]} ipv4-address Enter the IPv4 address of the backup destination. Virtual Link Trunking (VLT) 1827

Virtual Link Trunking (VLT)

Virtual link trunking (VLT) allows physical links between two chassis to appear as a single virtual link to the

network core. VLT eliminates the requirement for Spanning Tree protocols by allowing link aggregation

group (LAG) terminations on two separate distribution or core switches, and by supporting a loop-free

topology.

VLT provides Layer 2 multipathing, creating redundancy through increased bandwidth and enabling

multiple parallel paths between nodes and load-balancing traffic where alternative paths exist.

NOTE:

When you launch the VLT link, the VLT peer-ship is not established if any of the following is

TRUE

•

The VLT System-MAC configured on both the VLT peers do not match.

•

The VLT Unit-Id configured on both the VLT peers are identical.

•

The VLT System-MAC or Unit-Id is configured only on one of the VLT peers.

•

The VLT domain ID is not the same on both peers.

If the VLT peer-ship is already established, changing the System-MAC or Unit-Id does not cause VLT

peer-ship to go down.

Also, if the VLT peer-ship is already established and the VLT Unit-Id or System-MAC are configured

on both peers, then changing the CLI configurations on the VLT Unit-Id or System-MAC is rejected

if any of the following become

TRUE

•

After making the CLI configuration change, the VLT Unit-Id becomes identical on both peers.

•

After making the CLI configuration change, the VLT System-MAC do not match on both peers.

When the VLT peer-ship is already established, you can remove the VLT Unit-Id or System-MAC

configuration from either or both peers. However, removing configuration settings can cause the

VLT ports to go down if you configure the Unit-Id or System-MAC on only one of the VLT peers.

back-up destination

Configure the IPv4 or IPv6 address of the management interface on the remote VLT peer used as the VLT

backup link endpoint for sending out-of-band (OOB) hello messages.

Syntax

back-up destination {[

ipv4–address

] | [ipv6

ipv6–address

]

[interval

seconds

]}

Parameters

ipv4–address

Enter the IPv4 address of the backup destination.
