Hello Everyone,
First, a little background. I am a 1 man 1 stop IT shop for a 400+ user production environment, managing all facets of the infrastructure where I work. To say that my typical day in insane, would be a massive understatement.
On to my problem, I have been trying to figure out how to establish a connection between our new infrastructure (VM hosts, Data store, core network backbone) and our existing switching infrastructure, and as it stands, I cannot get the connection established.
Diagram below:
I have set-up a test network so that nothing will be impacting production, until I can figure this out.
There is a very good possibility that I am trying to over complicate this and if I am, please just let me know, I am open to suggestions.
I have had all this dumped in my lap, with a timeline breathing down my neck, and I am feeling out of my depth, so any input would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance!
Solved! Go to Solution.

Turns out that STP was not the problem at all and everything on the Dell side was verified correctly. The Extreme X440 connectivity would not work due to the lack of native 10GB support, which I found out after calling into the GTAC, and had a Tech remote in to see what was going on, at which point I found out that the Extreme X440 cannot communicate with a SPF+ connection on ANY on the front ports on the switch, so we turned on the 30-day “dual port 10GB demo license”, reset the ports from 23 & 24 to 25 & 26, and everything worked perfectly.
TL:DR - Turned on 10GB on Extreme Side, set ports 25 & 26 (these ports are the 10GB ports/ non-stacking) in LACP sharing for 10GB functionality, and it works.

Hi,
Can you provide the output of “show lacp counters” from the EXOS switch?
Thanks,
