MAGNUM 6K SWITCHES, MNS-6K USER GUIDE
FIGURE 106 – This configuration is similar to the previous configuration, except there is a common
VLAN (VLAN 1) between the two sets of LACP ports. This is a valid configuration.

IGURE 107 – In the architecture above, using RSTP and LACP allows multiple switches to be configured
together in a meshed redundant link architecture. First define the RSTP configuration on the switches. Then
define the LACP ports. Then finally connect the ports together to form the meshed redundant link topology as
shown above.
Using the Magnum edge switch with dual-homing allows the edge devices
to have link level redundancy as well – bringing the fault tolerance from
the network to the edge.
