Help uplink Dell 2048 to Ruckus ICX 8200

Hello,

I need to uplink a Ruckus to a Dell 2048 but the 2 switches uses different commands and I'm at a loss.

First, I would like to simply have a trunk ports on both up have a "one cable" uplink.

Second, I would like to know how to mirror a port-channel with multiple vlan on the Dell to a LAG on the Ruckus.

I've look to many articles, that create the LAG on the Ruckus, then use the command ports eth 1/1/1.. to tag ports on the LAG but my LAG int doesn't have any "ports" command.

Hi Applewaffle,

For Creating a trunk port, where multiple vlans are tagged and there is a untagged vlan.

The ports are untagged to the default vlan thats set on the device by default. Usually this is Vlan 1.
When configuring the switch, the port would need to be re-mapped to the untagged its peer's port.

For tagging a vlan or vlans on the ports can be done as shown :
Conf t
int eth < port number>
Vlan-config add tagged < mention the vlan id with a space between them >
exit

Example :

Conf t
int eth 1/1/48
vlan-config add tagged 10 20 30 40
exit

For untagging the port to the vlan :
Conf t
vlan < vlan id >
untagged eth < port number >
exit

This should help create the one link / trunk connection between the 2 nodes.

As for, how to mirror a port-channel with multiple vlan on the Dell to a LAG on the Ruckus.
Could the requirement here be that device/connection "X" on the Dell Switch needs to have the traffic mirrored across to an device that's connected on Ruckus Switch ?

Generally there would be local mirroring that could be done on the Dell unit, [ not sure of the config involved ].
But passing the mirrored traffic from one switch to another over a lag where other traffic would also be observed, not sure if this could be achieved.
Hence for this would suggest that if local mirroring could be explored on the Dell Unit and check if the analyzer could be connected on there.

Let me know if the details help !

Joshua
