Truly enjoyed this video and the config-sanity command at the end. Only downside was the poor audio. It made watching the video very challenging until I enabled the cc feature.
Good stuff! Question. I have two Aristas in a MLAG mode and I have a Synology NAS, that has the ability to link aggregate for higher throughput. How would I connect and setup it in the Aristas? Do I connect on Ethernet cable on Arista01 and another on Arista02 switch and port channel or connect both Ethernet cables from the NAS to the same switch and port channel it on a single Arista (but this defeats the purpose if switch zero fails). Thanks!
Yes. Think of 2 Arista switches as one logical switch. Create an MLAG port-channel . Paste the below config on Switch1 and Switch2 interface Port-Channel69 Des Uplink to NAS-PortX switchport trunk native vlan 999 (This is optional.) switchport mode trunk mlag 69 ! interface Ethernet53 switchport trunk native vlan 999 switchport mode trunk channel-group 69 mode active This will create MLAG port-channel 69 with Switch1 member port Eth53 and switch 2 member port 53. Take the connection port Eth53 from both switch1 and switch2 to your NAS. Hope this help. Please don't forget to hit the subscribe and the like button.
Question. The vlan I need this NAS to be is on vlan 4 so No need to create the port-channel as a truck on both switch, correct? Just “switchport access vlan 4” in the port-channel XX. The same on the physical interface, access vlan 4. The arista isn’t using vrrp, it’s using a “ip virtual-router”.
@@freddycalderon9092 you can configure the Port-channels with access vlan 4. I am hoping vlan 4 svi is on Arista switch 1 and switch2 . You can email me Arista vlan4 config administrator@tutorialswithtips.com
Hi again! Hope you don’t mind me asking. I purchased a Cisco C2960 and I configured both SFP+ ports on the C2960 as LACP Po3 and trunk it. I also put one of each ports on the Arista switches as a MLAG and Po3 as trunk. Do I need to enable IP Routing on the C2960 to past two vlans? Just like the way your single Arista switch has IP routing and the new hop address. Thanks again buddy!
2960 doesn't need IP routing to pass traffic. It's layer 2 trunk. IP routing needs to be enabled on the up stream switch who does the inter vlan routing. If that's the Arista then you are good. Just to pass the traffic to Arista you don't have to enable IP routing. Make sure you have a valid default gateway configured.
Tutorials & Tips I figured out why the Asrita and Cisco switch couldn’t ping each other (even know lldp could detect each other). I put the Aristas’s physical interface as trunk when the interface Port Channel was on trunk too. After I removed the trunk from the physical interface, it worked. Forgive my ignorance, why did the standalone Arista switch from your video had IP Routing enable? Thanks again
it seems LACP has bug in Arista on EVE-NG. I tried LACP mode active won't work. it must be LACP mode on then it would work. how do you deal with this bug?
Create a separate vswitch and put your lacp ports in a port group on that vswitch. As far as bug, please do a bug lookup and it should have a work around. It's been a while I have used eve. I have fully went for esxi based lab simulating multi-site enterprise network with wlan, SDWan and soon to add Aos-cx vsx in that mix. Check out my lab videos to see if that helps.

Yup, my situation I’m only doing a core 1 and 2 no other device but I realized I think I don’t have any mlag ports configured because I don’t have that third device like you do let me know
@@black_heart_gaming583 you don't need a 3rd device to create an Mlag. You need 2 devices to create Mlag. Core1 and Core 2 needs to be interconnected on Mlag Port-channel. Send me your config administrator@tutorialswithtips.com
Lots of background humming noise from servers. To hide that, I thought music would be nice. Again it's just the aesthetic, that shouldn't affect learning the concept. If you have questions please let me know.
Gr8 video, looking forward to see more of Arista related videos, specially VXLAN, Thanks
Thanks Shahzad. My work is keeping me very busy but I will remember your request.
