Administrator Guide

• Access switch A1 is connected to two VLT peers (Dell-1 and Dell-2).
• The two VLT peers are connected to an upstream switch R1.
• OSPF is configured in Dell-1, Dell-2, and R1 switches.
• Dell-1 is configured as the root bridge.
• Dell-1 is configured as the VLT primary.
• As the Router ID of Dell-1 is the highest in the topology (highest loopback address of 172.17.1.1), Dell-1 is the OSPF Designated Router.
• As the Router ID of Dell-2 is the second highest in the topology (172.16.1.1), Dell-2 is the OSPF Backup Designated Router.
