Id
|
A value that uniquely identifies the MultiLink Trunk.
- For 8600 modules, up to 32 MLTs (IDs 1-32) are supported.
- For 8100 modules, up to 6 MLTs (IDs 1-6) are supported.
|
SvlanPortType
|
Set MLT port type:
- normal (default)
- uni (User-to-Network Interface)
| You must configure ports to which you want to provide VLAN transparency as UNI ports. UNI ports can only belong to one SVLAN. When you designate a port as a UNI port, the DiscardTaggedFrames parameter is automatically configured (Edit>Port>VLAN). This prevents traffic from leaking to other VLANs. |
- nni (Network-to-Network Interface)
| NNI ports interconnect the switches in the core network, drop untagged frames on ingress, and insert the SVLAN tag at the egress. When you configure an NNI port, the DiscardUnTaggedFrames parameter is automatically configured (Edit>Port> VLAN). |
Before configuring a port as uni or nni, you must change the switch level to 1 or above (Edit>VLAN> SVLAN>Level).
|
PortType
|
Access or trunk port.
|
Name
|
The name given to the MLT.
|
PortMembers
|
The ports assigned to the MLT.
MLT is supported on 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, 100BASE-FX, and Gigabit Ethernet ports. All ports in an MLT must be of the same media type (copper or fiber), and have the same settings for speed and duplex. All untagged ports must belong to the same spanning tree group.
For 8600 modules, up to 8 same-type ports can belong to a single MLT.
For 8100 modules, up to 4 same-type ports can belong to a single MLT.
|
VlanIds
|
The VLAN(s) to which the ports belong.
|
MltType
|
Editable field for specifying the type of MLT:
- normalMLT
- istMLT
- splitMLT
|
RunningType
|
Read only field displaying the MLT operational type:
- normalMLT
- istMLT
- splitMLT
Note: This field is read only on the MultiLink Trunks tab, and does not appear on the Insert MLT dialog box.
|
SmltId
|
The split MLT ID (1-32) assigned to both ends of the split trunk.
Note: The corresponding SMLTs between aggregation switches must have the same SMLT ID.
|
IfIndex
|
Read only field, displaying the Interface Index number (4096 to 4127) identifying the MLT to the software.
|
Multicast Distribution
|
The multicast distribution state on MLT ports:
- Enabled
- Disabled (default)
Multicast distribution must also be configured on the chassis (Edit > Chassis> Mcast MLT Distribution). For more information, see the publication, Configuring IP Routing Multicast Protocols.
Note: Multicast distribution over MLT is supported only on 8000 Series E-modules.
