unit-id
Explicitly configure the default unit ID of a VLT peer switch.
Syntax
unit-id id
Parameters
id Enter the system unit ID for VLT. The range is from 0 to 1.
Defaults Automatically assigned based on the MAC address of each VLT peer. The peer with the lower MAC address is
assigned unit 0; the peer with the higher MAC address is assigned unit 1.
Command Modes VLT DOMAIN

Version Description
9.2(0.0) Introduced on the MXL 10/40GbE Switch IO Module.
Usage Information
When you create a VLT domain on a switch, the system automatically assigns a unique unit ID (0 or 1) to each
peer switch. The unit IDs are used for internal system operations. To explicitly configure the unit ID of a VLT peer,
use the unit-id command. Configure a different unit ID (0 or 1) on each peer switch.
To minimize the time required for the VLT system to determine the unit ID assigned to each peer switch when one
peer reboots, use this command.
vlt domain
Enable VLT on a switch, configure a VLT domain, and enter VLT-domain configuration mode.
Syntax
vlt domain domain-id
Parameters
domain-id Enter the Domain ID number. Configure the same domain ID on the peer switch. VLT
uses the domain ID to automatically create a VLT MAC address for the domain. The
range of domain IDs is from 1 to 1000.

Syntax
vlt-peer-lag port-channel id-number
Parameters
id-number Enter the port-channel number that connects to another port channel in the VLT peer.
The range is from 1 to 128.
