Upgrading from MCLAG to VSX

This chapter provides information about upgrading customer configurations that include the MCLAG feature operating on ArubaOS-CX 10.00 to the replacement feature, Virtual Switching Extension (VSX), available in this release. VSX provides advanced capabilities beyond what was previously available with the MCLAG feature. This chapter provides the procedure for upgrading to VSX and it describes configuration differences and equivalencies between MCLAG and VSX.

During the upgrade, the MCLAG configuration is removed and VSX must be configured through the CLI. The upgrade process does not automatically migrate the configurations that include MCLAG on ArubaOS-CX 10.00 to VSX in this release.
