Congure VLT
Verify that both VLT peer devices are running the same OS version. For VRRP operation, congure VRRP groups and L3 routing on each
VLT peer.
Congure the following settings on each VLT peer device separately.
1 (Optional) To prevent loops in VLT domain, enable the STP globally using the spanning-tree mode {rstp | rapid-pvst |
mst}
command.
2 Create a VLT domain by conguring the same domain ID on each peer using the vlt-domain command.
3 (Optional) To override the default VLT primary election mechanism based on the system MAC addresses of the VLT nodes, congure
a VLT node priority for each of the VLT nodes using the primary-priority command. Enter a lower priority value for the desired
primary VLT peer and a higher priority value for the desired secondary VLT peer.
4 Congure the VLTi interfaces on each peer using the discovery-interface command. After you congure both sides of the
VLTi, the primary and secondary roles in the VLT domain are automatically assigned if primary priority is not congured.
5 (Optional) Manually recongure the default VLT MAC address. Congure the VLT MAC address in both VLT peers.
6 (Optional) Congure a time interval to delay bringing up VLT ports after reload or when VLTi come up after failure.
7 Congure the VLT backup link the heartbeat use with the backup destination {ip-address | ipv6 ipv6–address }
[vrf management] [interval interval-time] command.
