PVST+ Conguration
PVST+ is supported in a VLT domain.
Before you congure VLT on peer switches, congure PVST+ in the network. PVST+ is required for initial loop prevention during the VLT 
startup phase. You may also use PVST+ for loop prevention in the network outside of the VLT port channel.
Run PVST+ on both VLT peer switches. A PVST+ instance is created for every VLAN congured in the system. PVST+ instances running in 
the Primary Peer control the VLT-LAGs on both Primary and Secondary peers. Only the Primary VLT switch determines the PVST+ roles 
and states on VLT ports and ensures that the VLT interconnect link is never blocked. The PVST+ instance in Primary peer sends the role/
state of VLT-LAGs for all VLANs to the Secondary peer. The Secondary peer uses this information to program the hardware. The PVST+ 
instance running in Secondary peer does not control the VLT-LAGs.
Dell EMC Networking recommends conguring the primary VLT peer as the primary root device for all the congured PVST+ Instances and 
conguring the secondary VLT peer as the secondary root device for all the congured PVST+ Instances.
