Configuring OTV on F3 card
Question
I am facing issue with reference configuring OTV on F3-Card (N77-F348XP-23) only VDC getting following message.
Nexus77K(Config)#feature otv
Feature otv not supported in F2E without M1, M1XL or M2XL VDC
So to run OTV on F3 will I required M1/M1XL or M2XL card. If yes then what's purpose of purchasing F3 card supporting OTV. and if no what is the way to enable the OTV on this module.
Action plan
As per Cisco F3 Card support OTV.
The issue may be that the module-type is not set for F3.
F3 can only exist in a VDC with M2XL, F2, F2e and other F3 cards.
The command to enable F3 cards in a vdc is "limit-resource module-type f3" in VDC
configuration mode.
The "system module-type f3" command can be entered in global configuration to allow F3
modules for the chassis.
Example
On the Default VDC
Show vdc
vdc_id vdc_name state mac
type lc
------ -------- -----
1 Nexus active 00:1a:5a:8c:0c:c1 Admin None
2 test active 00:1a:5a:8c:0c:c4
Ethernet f2e f3 >>>The LC column has f2e f3
Nexus(config)# vdc test >>>> In your case use the VDC name that you have in
use.
Nexus(config-vdc)# limit-resource module-type f3
This will cause all ports of unallowed types to be removed from this vdc. Continue
(y/n)?
[yes] y
Nexus(config-vdc)# end
Nexus# sh vdc
Nexuswide mode is f2e f3
vdc_id vdc_name state mac
type lc
------ -------- -----
1 Nexus active 00:2a:6a:8c:0c:c1
Admin None
2 test active 00:2a:6a:8c:0c:c4
Ethernet f3 Line card now has only F3 type
Nexus#Nexusto vdc test
Nexus-test(config)# feature otv
Nexus-test(config)# COMMAND is accepted.
hope this helps.
