Virtual Link Trunking or VLT is a proprietary aggregation protocol developed by Force10 (now Dell Networking) and available in their datacenter-class or enterprise-class network switches. VLT is implemented in the latest firmware releases of legacy ( FTOS ) OS9 for their high-end switches like the S-, Z- and E-series 10/25,40 and 100 Gbit/s ...
Switch A is replaced by two chassis, switches A 1 and A 2. They communicate between themselves using a proprietary protocol and are thereby able to masquerade as a single "virtual" switch A running a shared instance of LACP. Switch B is not aware that it is connected to more than one chassis. Switch B is also replaced by two chassis B 1 and B 2 ...
All PowerConnect blade switches, except for the original PC-M8024, can be stacked. To stack the new PC-M8024-k switch the switches need to run firmware version 4.2 or higher. [27] In principle one can only stack switches of the same family; thus stacking multiple PCM6220's together or several PCM8024-k.
Within the IEEE Ethernet standards, the Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) provides a method to control the bundling of several physical links together to form a single logical link. LACP allows a network device to negotiate an automatic bundling of links by sending LACP packets to their peer, a directly connected device that also ...
Up to 8 switches out of the 5500 series can be stacked, using the built-in HDMI stack-ports, to form one logical switch. The switch also offers special features for a voice-VLAN as well as extensive options for dot1x security and dynamic VLAN assignment via RADIUS or TACACS+ server.
