Issue to connect to MDS switches

arnaudch
Level 1
Level 1

Dear all,

 

In order to setup an architecture, I am trying to configure a LAB with 2 MDS switches 9148 and a FibreChannel 8 tester.

That works perfectly if I use only 1 switch (alone 192.168.1.87). My Tester is connected between port fc1/1 and fc1/2.

I can monitor the traffic on port fc1/3. Everything is fine.

 

But I have trouble to connect the both MDS switches together.

The goal would be to allow the traffic between the MDS (192.168.1.87) port fc1/1 and the MDS (192.168.1.88) port fc1/2 using a trunk on fc1/15 (for both switches)

 

The traffic is not going through.

Please find bellow the both configuration. I'm sure it's just a small mistake on the configuration

 

MDS 192.168.1.87

Any idea of the root cause ?

Thanks per advance for your reply.

The trunk interfaces don't need to be zoned !

Please delete all the zone's and zoneset on each switch and then start from scratch. 

The ISL should be up and working !

Then connect your end device and do a 

show flogi database vsan 55 on each switch

or

show fcns database vsan 55 on one switch

On one switch you do !!!!!!

configure the zone(s)

a zone should have 2 members (one initiator, one target)

the zone members should be based on pwwn, NOT fcid, or interface

then create a zoneset and add the zones

This configuration is automatically pushed over the ISL link to the other switch

then activate the zoneset

You're right.
That works now.

Thanks so much for your help. I really appreciated :)

 

Have a nice week.

 

Arnaud
