MLAG Summary tab

The MLAG Summary tab provides a list of the MLAGs (ports combined as a common logical connection on devices) included in the map.

The MLAG Summary tab provides a list of the MLAGs (ports combined as a common logical connection on devices) included in the map. The list provides the MLAG's status, ID, ISC VLAN tag, the names and addresses of the devices configured as part of the MLAG, and the ports on those devices assigned as part of the MLAG. Additionally, the Connected IP column displays the IP of the switch to which the MLAG is connected.

  NOTE: One-armed MLAGs, which may be utilized in a VPEX Ring topology, will normally display an MLAG port on only one of the devices.

The following columns are included in the MLAG Summary table:

Status
Displays the status of ISC links and MLAG ports:
  • Up — All ISC links are up and all MLAG ports are up.
  • Degraded — One or more ISC links are down and all MLAG ports are up, or one or more ISC links are down and one or more MLAGs are down.
  • Protecting — All ISC links are up and one or more MLAG ports are down.
  • Unprotected — All ISC links are down and all MLAG ports are up, or all ISC links are down and one or more MLAG ports are down.
  • Down — All ISC links are down and all MLAG ports are down, or all ISC links are up and all MLAG ports are down, or one or more ISC links are down and all MLAG ports are down.
  • Unknown — MLAG is only configured on one side of the MLAG paired devices (regardless of whether any or all ISC links are up or down).
ID
The ID number assigned to the port
ISC VLAN Tag
Displays the ISC VLAN tag assigned to the port.
Name
Name of the devices configured as part of the MLAG.
IP Address
IP address of the devices configured as part of the MLAG.
Ports
Lists the ports on those devices assigned as part of the MLAG.
Connected IP
Displays the IP of the switch to which the MLAG is connected.

Selecting the checkbox associated with an MLAG highlights any devices containing ports associated with the MLAG by surrounding the device in a box with a color-coded title bar containing the MLAG ID.

Selecting multiple MLAGs assigned to the same device adds a new title bar to the box containing the VLAN name and associated color.
