NOTE: Uplink is an interconnect (also called port-channel, or grouping of ports) which is
created on a switch by creating a connection to other switches in a networking environment.
ASM can configure uplinks on MXLs, I/O Aggregators, FN410S, and FN2210S switches (I/O
modules).

NOTE: Uplink is basically external connection out of the switch to chassis to customer network
environment. Customer is still require to configure corresponding port on the top of rack
switch and uplink as well . ASM only configure the chassis.
VLT Enabled
VLT is a cross switches on chassis. This is a special interconnect (i.e. port-channel/grouping of ports)
between two peer switches.
VLT is mainly enabled for make redundancy. If one network fail, redundant network can be used to avoid
facing complete network traffic fail.
If you enable VLT, you can select VLT from port drop down menu. Same should be selected in
corresponding port , so that it can corrospondent port to port.
It is not mandatory to have VLT.
NOTE: For FX2, VLT should be selected only from port 9 drop-down menu and you also must select
that correspondent port for VLT.
NOTE: For M1000E chassis, we can select either VLT or Uplink from any of the port but it has to
match port-to-port. VLT is available for I/0-Agregator port but not for MXL ( M100e Chassis).
