Creating an MLT
To enable an MLT, the device must have more than one connection to another
device. With MultiLink Trunking Manager, you can create an MLT on a device
and then physically connect the ports, or you can connect the ports first and then
configure the MLT.
Creating an MLT with one device
When you create an MLT with one device, MultiLink Trunking Manager
considers only the ports that are available on the one device. After you create an
MLT on one device, you must also configure and connect the ports in the second
device before enabling the MLT. You cannot configure an MLT on an isolated
device.
To create a new MLT with one device selected:
1
Select a device from the first (folder) level of the MultiLink Trunking
Manager navigation pane.
The Device table opens in the contents pane.
2
Do one of the following:
•
From the MultiLink Trunking Manager menu bar, choose Edit > Insert.
•
On the MultiLink Trunking Manager toolbar, click Insert.
The Insert MLT dialog box opens
