Defining VLAG instance settings

You can create or update a VLAG instance using the VLAG Instance Configuration template. A VLAG instance is a device that is connected to both switches (usually through a port aggregation) to which the VLAG appears as a single device.

Procedure

Complete the following steps to create a VLAG Instance Configuration template.

1. From the XClarity Administrator menu bar, click Provisioning > Switch Configuration Templates. The Switch Configuration Templates page is displayed.
2. Click VLAG > Instance Configuration in the left navigation, and then click the Create icon ().
3. In the Create New Template dialog, specify the following information.

   • Enter a name and description for the template.

   • Specify the VLAG ID. This can be a number from 1 – 64.

   • Specify the ID of the port-channel that is connected to the Peer 1 and Peer 2. This can be a number from 1 – 4095.

   • Choose whether to enable or disable the VLAG instance.

4. Click Create to save the template, or click Create and Deploy to save and immediately deploy the template to one or more managed rack switches.
