Uplink failure detection on VLT
When you create uplink-state group in a switch operating in VLT mode, ensure that all the nodes in the VLT setup have same
configuration for uplink state groups with VLT port-channel as member. If both the VLT peers do not have the same UFD
configuration, the UFD does not work properly.
When you configure VLT port-channel as upstream member in the uplink state group and configure to track the VLT status, the
system tracks the fabric Status of VLT. When the fabric status goes down, the uplink state group in each VLT node disables the
downstream VLT port-channel local to the node.
When you configure to track the VLT status, the system places the downstream members of the Uplink State Group in error
disabled state or clears them from the error disabled state based on the operational status of the VLT port-channel.
When you do not track the VLT status, the system tracks the operational status of port-channel.
Track the VLT status using the upstream interface-type track-vlt-status command in UPLINK-STATE-GROUP
mode.
To configure VLTi link as member of Uplink State Group, use the upstream VLTi command in UPLINK-STATE-GROUP mode.
You cannot configure VLTi Link as downstream member in an uplink-state group as UFD may disable the VLTi Link when the
upstream members are operationally down. You cannot track the VLT status for an upstream VLTi member.
The following table describes various scenarios when you apply UFD on a VLT network:
Table 152. UFD on VLT network
Event VLT action on primary node VLT action on secondary
node
UFD action
VLTi Link is operationally
down with heartbeat up
No action VLT module sends VLT port-
channel disable request to
Interface Manager (IFM) for
both uplink and downlink.
UFD receives operationally
down of upstream VLT port-
channel and sends error-
disable of downstream VLT
port-channel to IFM.
