How to prefer a VLT connection over another VLT connection from the same z9100-on switch

Hello All,

I have configured two VLT connections to two firewalls running active/standby. I like to know if I can use the priority statement in the VLT configuration on the same switch to prefer the traffic to go to the active firewall and when the active firewall fails, I will switch the traffic to other VLT connection. If you have a sample configuration it will really help.

Thanks

Juan

Hi,

 

Well, sort of. Switchport passes multiple tagged VLANs, or one untagged VLAN.

Hi,

 

You can use this reference: https://dell.to/48BY8Ec this is used for switch connecting to end device and example configuration.

@DELL-Joey C​ Thank you Joey - One thing that I don't understand is on Figure2. Sample configuration how interface Eth1/1/10 and Eth1/1/11 are associated to the port-channel 1. The sever in Figure2 I am planning to use a pair of Juniper firewalls running in active and stand-by, I am planning to configure an aggregate interface, "port-channel" in the Juniper firewall.

Thanks,

Juan

Hello Juanlarriega,

 

I see that configuration is missing in the example showing the port-channel to the end device.

I am providing an updated example for OS10. Let me know if that is not the OS you are on.

This is an updated VLT document  from the Z9100 documentation page.

 

In this latest example port-channel 5 is the LACP port channel that goes to the end device.

interface ethernet 1/1/10   belongs to po 5.

This is the Z9100 support page with documentation if you don't already have it.

Hi,

 

You can use this article for OS9; similar to Charles's link reference where it's PO5. The OS9 is PO20.

@DELL-Joey C​ Thank you Joey - In the sample configuration for Po20 I like to configure the Po20 as a trunk (Cisco way of passing multiple VLANs on link). Does the statement "switchport" is equivalent to "trunk" in Cisco?
