The bold section displays the RSTP state of port channels in the VLT domain. Port channel 100 is used in
the VLT interconnect trunk (VLTi) to connect to VLT peer2. Port channels 110, 111, and 120 are used to
connect to access switches or servers (vlt).

Connecting a VLT Domain
To connect a VLT domain to an attached access device, use the following commands.
For more information, refer to Verifying a VLT Configuration.
1. Configure the VLT domain with the same ID in VLT peer 1 and VLT peer 2.
VLT DOMAIN
vlt domain domain id
2. Configure the VLTi between VLT peer 1 and VLT peer 2. LACP/Static LAG can be configured
between the peer units (not shown).
