Version Description
9.9(0.0) Introduced on the C9010.
9.7(0.0) Introduced on the S6000-ON.

Usage Information In a square VLT topology with a single link connecting to the remote peers, If a VLT peer goes down, the local VLT
node must be prompted to stop transmitting it’s peer’s MAC address. You can configure the peer-timeout
value command to stop the local VLT node from transmitting the peer MAC address within the configured peer
timeout value. The default timeout value is infinity. You must enable the vlt-peer-mac transmit to
configure a peer time out value.
