Dell N3024, N2048 manual Unsupported LAG configurations

Page 20

In Figure 9 below, the first topology shows MLAG peers on one layer and Dell VLT peers on the second layer, with a full-mesh LAG. The second topology shows MLAG peers on one layer and Cisco vPC (or Cisco VSS) on the second layer, also with a full-mesh LAG. Neither full mesh configuration shown in these scenarios is compatible.

Figure 9 Unsupported LAG configurations

When using MLAG in a full-mesh LAG, no other peer technology can be used. To use another peer technology on a second layer, LAGs must be configured only on the MLAG peer switches (like in Figure 7). or only on the other peer switches that are using Dell VLTi or Cisco vPC. Either side works as long as both LAGs are created on the same peer set.
