Standalone System
You can connect a standalone system to a system that already has a PE to make it dual homed. In the following illustration, PE 1 is
connected to System A and System B is a standalone.
Figure 111. Standalone System and System with PE — Before setting up Dual Homing
To convert the above system into a dual homing setup, perform the following:
1 Repeat the steps 2 to 7 from Systems with Port Extender.
2 Change the uplink port connections of the PE, so that the uplink ports are connected to each of the VLT peers. In the above example,
the link connected to Te 0/1 in System A is disconnected and connected to Te 1/4 in System B.
3 Remove the disconnected interface (Te 0/1) from the conguration mode of PE 1 in System A. The conguration would be already
available in System A and needs to be removed.
PE CONFIGURATION (BATCH mode)
no cascade interface interface slot/port
Dell(conf-b-pe-1)# no cascade interface TenGigabitEthernet 0/1
4 Congure the cascade interface of the System B through the batch mode of System A and commit the conguration.
