VSS Cisco Switch 4500 Configuration

VSS Configuration Cisco 4500 Switch

1.  Cisco Catalyst 4500-E Series Switches with Cisco Catalyst Supervisor Engine 7-E.
2. Create VSL Link between two switches.VSS members are connected by virtual switch
   links (VSLs) using standard Gigabit or 10 Gigabit Ethernet
3. Use Cisco IOS-XE Software 3.0 and above


Step 1.:   Assigning Virtual Switch Domain and Switch Numbers
-------------------STEP-1------------------------------------
SW1 Configuration
*****************

SW1(config)#switch virtual domain 10
SW1(config-vs-domain)#switch 1

===================================

SW2  Configuration
******************

SW2(config)#switch virtual domain 10
SW2(config-vs-domain)#switch 2
_____________________________________________________________

Step 2 :   Configuring VSL Port Channel
-----------------STEP-2----------------------
SW1 Configuration
*****************

SW1(config)#int port-channel 6
SW1(config-if)#switchport
SW1(config-if)#switch virtual link 1
SW1(config-if)#no shut
=====================================
SW2  Configuration
******************

SW2(config)#int port-channel 10
SW2(config-if)#switchport
SW2(config-if)#switch virtual link 2
SW2(config-if)#no shut

______________________________________________________


Step 3 :   Configuring VSL Port Channel
----------------STEP-3---------------------------------
SW1 Configuration
*****************

SW1(config)#int range gig1/1 - 2
SW1(config-if-range)#switchport mode trunk
SW1(config-if-range)#channel-group 6 mode on

=============================================
SW2  Configuration
***************

SW2(config)#int range gig4/47 - 48
SW2(config-if-range)#switchport mode trunk
SW2(config-if-range)#channel-group 10 mode on

_______________________________________________________

Step 4 :   Converting the Switch to Virtual Switch Mode
----------------STEP-4-------------------------
SW1 Configuration
*****************
SW1#switch convert mode virtual

============================================
SW2  Configuration
***************
SW2#switch convert mode virtual
