Server-facing ports are auto-configured as part of link aggregation groups if the corresponding server is configured for LACP-based NIC teaming. Static LAGs are not supported. Tip: The recommended LACP timeout is long-timeout mode. By default, all server-facing ports are tracked by the operational status of the uplink LAG. If the uplink LAG goes down, the Aggregator loses its connectivity and is no longer operational; all server-facing ports are brought down. Tip: If installed servers do not have connectivity to a ToR switch, check the Link Status LED of uplink ports on the Aggregator. If all LEDs are on, check the LACP configuration on the ToR switch that is connected to the Aggregator to ensure the LACP is correctly configured. Note: Link tracking is also referred to as uplink failure detection (UFD). By default, all Aggregator ports belong to all 4094 VLANs and are members of untagged VLAN 1. You can use the CLI or CMC interface to configure only the required VLANs on a port. When you configure VLANs on server-facing interfaces (ports 1 to 32), you can assign VLANs to a port or a range of ports by entering the vlan tagged or vlan untagged commands in interface configuration mode; for example: FTOS(conf)# interface tengigabitethernet 0/2 - 4 FTOS(conf-if-range-te-0/2-4)# vlan tagged 5,7,10-12 FTOS(conf-if-range-te-0/2-4)# vlan untagged 3 Note: You can also use the CMC interface to configure VLANs. Uplink LAG The tagged VLAN membership of the uplink LAG is automatically configured based on the VLAN configuration of all server-facing ports (ports 1 to 32). The untagged VLAN used for the uplink LAG is always the default VLAN. Server-Facing LAGs The tagged VLAN membership of a server-facing LAG is automatically configured based on the server-facing ports that are members of the LAG.
The untagged VLAN of a server-facing LAG is configured based on the untagged VLAN to which the lowest numbered server-facing port in the LAG belongs. Tip: Dell Force10 recommends that you configure the same VLAN membership on all LAG member ports. Stacking Mode Stacking is supported only on the 40GbE ports on the base module. A single stack is limited to two Aggregators in the same chassis. Up to three stacks are supported in an M1000e chassis. To configure a switch stack, you must use the CLI. See Stacking for more information. When you configure an Aggregator to operate in stacking mode, VLANs are reconfigured as follows: • If an Aggregator port belonged to all 4094 VLANs in standalone mode (default), all VLAN membership is removed and the port is assigned only to default VLAN 1. You must configure additional VLAN membership as necessary. • If you had manually configured an Aggregator port to belong to one or more VLANs (non-default) in standalone mode, the VLAN configuration is retained in stacking mode only on the master switch. When you reconfigure an Aggregator from stacking to standalone mode, Aggregator ports that you manually configured for VLAN membership in stacking mode retain their VLAN configuration in standalone mode. To restore the default auto-VLAN mode of operation (in which all ports are members of all 4094 VLANs) on a port, enter the auto vlan command; for example: FTOS(conf)# interface tengigabitethernet 0/2 FTOS(conf-if-te-0/2)# auto vlan Where to Go From Here You can customize the Aggregator for use in your data center network as necessary. To perform additional switch configuration, do one of the following: • For remote out-of-band management, enter the OOB management interface IP address into a Telnet or SSH client and log in to the switch using the user ID and password to access the CLI. • For local management using the CLI, use the attached console connection. • For remote in-band management from a network management station, enter the IP address of the default VLAN and log in to the switch to access the CLI. If you installed the Aggregator in a stack, you can configure additional settings for switch stacking. Before You Start | 7
