Conguration Terminal Batch Mode
The C9010 platform with Dell Networking OS 9.10(0.0) supports the Conguration Terminal Batch mode. You should perform the common
PE congurations using this mode.
To enter Conguration Terminal Batch mode:
1 Verify that you are logged in to EXEC Privilege mode.
2 Enter the configure terminal batch command. The prompt changes to include (conf-b).
You can return to EXEC mode by using the exit command.
Setting up Dual Homing
You can setup dual homing when:
1 There are two systems (CBs) and both have PEs connected to them. You can physically connect the CBs and then congure them as
VLT peers to convert the system into dual homing setup. Refer to Systems with Port Extender.
2 There is a CB connected to PE and a standalone CB. You can physically connect the CBs and then congure them as VLT peers. Then
physically connect the uplink ports of the PE to each of the VLT peers. The system starts functioning as a dual homing setup. Refer to
Standalone System.
3 There are two standalone CBs not connected to PEs. You can physically connect the CBs and then congure them as VLT peers.
Then physically connect the uplink ports of the PE to the VLT peers. The system starts functioning as a dual homing setup. Refer to
Systems without Port Extender.
NOTE
: PE up-time reects the duration of time for which the PE is up. However, during an ICL ap or reload scenario, PE up-
time is not synced between the VLT peers. As a result, both the VLT nodes run their own timers after an ICL ap or reload
occurs.
Systems with Port Extender
The following diagram illustrates PE 1 connected to System A and PE 2 connected to System B.
