Dell EMC SmartFabric OS10 User Guide Release 10.5.0

Configure the VLT MAC address

You can manually configure the VLT MAC address.

Configure the same VLT MAC address on both the VLT peer switches to avoid any unpredictable behavior during a VLT failover. For example, when a unit is down or when the VLTi is reset. If you do not configure a VLT MAC address, the MAC address of the primary peer is used as the VLT MAC address across all peers.

Use the vlt-mac mac-address to configure the MAC address in both the VLT peers.

Example configuration:
OS10(config)# vlt-domain 1
OS10(conf-vlt-1)# vlt-mac 00:00:00:00:00:02
NOTE Dell EMC Networking recommends configuring the VLT MAC address manually on both the VLT peer switches. Use the same MAC address on both peers.
