HP 5400 zl Switch Series - Distributed Trunking Example Configuration
Information
Distributed Trunking uses a proprietary protocol that allows two or more port trunk links distributed across two switches to create a trunk group. The grouped links appear to the
downstream device as if they are from a single device. This allows third party devices such as switches, servers, or any other networking device that supports trunking to
interoperate with the Distributed Trunking Switches (DTSs) seamlessly. Distributed trunking provides device level redundancy, in addition to link failure protection.
Distributed trunking switches are connected by an interface called the InterSwitch-Connect (ISC) port. This interface exchanges information so that the DTSs appear as a single
switch to a downstream device. Each DT switch in a DT pair must be configured with a separate ISC link and Layer 3 peer-keepalive link. The Layer 3 peer-keepalive link is used to
transmit keepalive messages when the ISC link is down, in order to determine if the failure is a link-level failure or the complete failure of the remote peer.
The downstream device is a Distributed Trunking Device (DTD). The DTD forms a trunk with the DTSs. The connecting links are DT links and the ports are DT ports. A
Distributed Trunk can span a maximum of two switches. Distributed trunks can be grouped together by configuring two individual dtlacp/ dt-trunk trunks with the same trunk group
name in each switch. The DT ports are grouped dynamically after the configuration of distributed trunking.
Details
Configuration Notes:
The trunk groups and trunk types must be identical in both switches. For example, if the local switch is configured with trk1 and uses the dt-lacp or dt-trunk option, the remote switch
must be configured with trk1 and use the dt-lacp or dttrunk option also in order to form a Distributed Trunk (DT).
Each DT switch in a DT pair must be configured with a separate ISC link and Layer 3 peer-keepalive link. The Layer 3 peer-keepalive link is used to transmit keepalive messages
when the ISC link is down, in order to determine if the failure is a linklevel failure or the complete failure of the remote peer. The Inter-Switch Connect (ISC) ports must be configured
before configuring the trunks for distributed trunking.
In the following example, switches Rack3sw1 and Rack3sw2 are configured as Distributed Trunking Switches. The Trk12 interface is used as the ICS link. The interfaces I1-I4 and
F1-F4 are as configured Distributed LACP Trunks. The IP KeepAlive VLAN is 30, and the Layer II KeepAlive VLAN is 20. The simulated Production VLAN is 10.
The configuration, verification, and testing associated with the diagram follows:
