N1K_can't specify a port-profile as uplink

[mhasabal]

Hello everyone,

i am running code 4.0(4)SV1(2)

i am trying to configure a port-profile for the system uplink (control & packet)

N1KDEMO(config)# port-profile system-uplink-control-packet

N1KDEMO(config-port-prof)# capability ?

  iscsi-multipath  Configure iSCSI multipath

  l3control        Set the L3control capability for this profile

i am not able to set the capability  as uplink and the result was it end up being Veth instead of Eth

any help please?

thank you all

In 4.0(4)SV1(2)....you need to specify type ethernet which is same as using capability uplink in the SV1(1) code, so you would do :

N1KDEMO(config)# port-profile type ethernet system-uplink-control-packet

If you do not specify type ethernet it will default to vethernet

i tried that already:

N1KDEMO(config)# port-profile type ethernet UPLINK_ALWAYS

N1KDEMO(config-port-prof)# capability ?

  iscsi-multipath  Configure iSCSI multipath

  l3control        Set the L3control capability for this profile

You dont have to specify capability command in SV1(2) code.By specifying port-profile type ethernet UPLINK_ALWAYS  you have already configued the port-profile to be capability uplink.
