Dual-machine backup of aggregation layer switches
MLAG (Multi-Chassis Link Aggregation), also known as Link Aggregation Plus, is an advanced version of link aggregation that allows aggregation across two physical switches instead of one. A link aggregation group is a port-channeling technology that dynamically manages port redundancy and load-balances AP transparently to the corresponding user. Learn about aggregated Ethernet LACP, and how to configure LACP and LACP link protection. By design, it therefore provides resiliency because it will always be deployed in pairs of switches and comes with a recommendation to deploy only dual hot swappable power supplies and redundant fans in each switch to. This document provides reference architectures for configuring networks for small campuses, large campuses, small software-defined (SD) branches, medium SD-branches, and large SD-branches. "Campus" covers a wide range of networks and locations, from multiple floors in an office tower to a.
