Usage
Information
LACP on the VLT ports (on a VLT switch or access device), which are members of the virtual
link trunk, is not brought up until the VLT domain is recognized on the access device.
On the S4810, during boot-up in a stacking configuration, the system must be able to reach the
DHCP server with the boot image and configuration image. During boot-up, only untagged
DHCP requests are sent to the DHCP server to receive an offer on static LAGs between
switches. The DHCP server must be configured to start in BMP mode. If switches are
connected using LACP port-channels like the VLT peer and Top of Rack (ToR), use the port-
channel parameter on the ToR-side configuration to allow member ports of an ungrouped LACP
port-channel to inherit vlan membership of that port channel to ensure untagged packets that
are sent by a VLT peer device reach the DHCP server located on the ToR.
To ungroup the VLT and port-channel configurations, use the no lacp ungroup member
independent command on a VLT port channel, depending on whether the port channel is VLT or
non-VLT.
