Syntax Description

vpex	Specifies Virtual Port Extender (VPEX).
mlag-id	Specifies setting a unique MLAG identifier of the MLAG port attached to the bridge port extender (BPE).
mlag_id	Sets the MLAG identifier value of the MLAG port attached to the BPE. Range is 1–65,000.
peer	Specifies naming the MLAG peer switch.
peer_name	Name of the MLAG peer switch.

Usage Guidelines

An Extended Edge Switching topology allows the BPE slot assignment to be applied to an MLAG identifier on the specified MLAG peer when the port connected to the BPE is physically connected to the MLAG peer switch.

The same Extended Edge Switching slot number must have been declared on the MLAG peer that does have a port in the MLAG. On the peer with the MLAG port, either this form of the command can be used, or the traditional form where a controlling bridge port is related to a slot number.

Example

The following example for MLAG peer switch "cb2" declares slot 100 on MLAG "11":

# configure vpex mlag-id 11 peer cb2 slot 100

History

This command was first available in ExtremeXOS 22.7.
