Dear All,
After configuring FCoE, we are getting "Trunk vsans (initializing) (VSAN NO.)". We have followed the below steps:-
1. "switchport mode trunk" for physical port where FCoE cable connected.
2. spanning-tree port type edge trunk
3. Allow respective VLAN including FCoE VLAN
4. VFC created.
5. Bind VFC with Physical Ethernet Port
6. VSAN is already added in VLAN
7. Associate VFC to VSAN
8. no shutdown command for VFC
we didn't install ESXi OS in that server.
Please check below config:-
XXXXXXXXX# show interface vfc 512
vfc512 is trunking
Bound interface is Ethernet1/9
Hardware is Ethernet
Port WWN is XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX
Admin port mode is F, trunk mode is on
snmp link state traps are enabled
Port mode is TF
Port vsan is 501
Trunk vsans (admin allowed and active) (501)
Trunk vsans (up) (501)
Trunk vsans (isolated) ()
Trunk vsans (initializing) ()
