When configuring multi-chassis redundancy, configuration must be performed on the two nodes that forms redundant-pair peer nodes. Each node points to its peer using the peer command.
When creating a multi-chassis LAG, the LAG must first be created under the config>lag lag-id context. Additionally, the LAG must be in access mode and LACP must be enabled (active or passive). Under the multi-chassis>peer>mc-lag context, the lag-id is the ID of the previously created LAG.
Use the following CLI syntax to configure multi-chassis redundancy features:
config>redundancy
multi-chassis
peer ip-address
authentication-key
[authentication-key | hash-key] [hash | hash2]
description description-string
mc-lag
hold-on-neighbor-failure multiplier
keep-alive-interval interval
lag lag-id lacp-key admin-key system-id system-id [remote-lag lag-id] system-priority system-priority
no shutdown

The following displays the configuration:
