Configure the backup link between the VLT peer units.
1. Configure the peer 2 management ip/ interface ip for which connectivity is present in VLT peer 1.
2. Configure the peer 1 management ip/ interface ip for which connectivity is present in VLT peer 2.

Configure the VLT links between VLT peer 1 and VLT peer 2 to the top of rack unit. In the following example,
port Te 0/40 in VLT peer 1 is connected to Te 0/48 of TOR and port Te 0/18 in VLT peer 2 is connected to
Te 0/50 of TOR.
1. Configure the static LAG/LACP between ports connected from VLT peer 1 and VLT peer 2 to the top
of rack unit.
2. Configure the VLT peer link port channel id in VLT peer 1 and VLT peer 2.
3. In the top of rack unit, configure LACP in the physical ports (shown for VLT peer 1 only. Repeat steps
for VLT peer 2. The highlighted vlt-peer-lag port-channel 2 indicates that port-channel 2 is the
port-channel id configured in VLT peer 2).
