Ensures configuration consistency between controlling bridges in a redundant controlling bridges environment with bridge port extenders (BPEs) or MLAG (Multi-switch Link Aggregation Group) peers.
orchestration | Specifies entering orchestration mode in redundant controlling bridges environments. |
mlag | Multi-switch link aggregation group. |
peer_name | Name of the MLAG peer controlling bridge (switch). |
N/A.
With redundant controlling bridges attached to each BPE, the associated extended port configuration must be identical on each controlling bridge. To reduce the configuration complexity and to minimize the risk of inconsistency, you can use orchestration mode so that any configuration commands are now checkpointed to the MLAG peer switch.
(orchestration bottom) X670G2-48x-4q.4 #
The following example enables orchestration mode on the controlling bridge (switch) with its MLAG peer "bottom":
# start orchestration mlag "bottom"
This command was first available in ExtremeXOS 22.5.
This command is available on the Summit X670-G2 and ExtremeSwitching X690 series switches.
