How to Carrier normal VLAN in FCOE N5K

[kornman666]

Assume create FCOE  uplink port-channel all port on FI 6324 (4port FCOE no dedicate link eth traffic) to N5K, How to config or what command on N5K for  carrier normal vlan traffic  for access vmware or other IP ethernet connection from outside to UCS mini blade server ??

You can simply put the ports that are connected to VM in a vlan. You also need to decide if the 5k is just a layer-2 device or also a layer-3. config exmaple with layer-3 something like this:

vlan 10

description vm vlan

add all ports that connect to VM to vlan 10

create a svi for vlan 10 with ip 

interface vlan 10

ip addres x.x.x.x

no sh

Is this what you are looking for?

Dear Reza

See in attach file , i already connect fcoe to n5k (no dedicate eth link, FCOE only) FCOE VSAN is working but i can't access VMWARE and server in ucs  from outside FCOE interface  (DATA vlan traffic) ??

[Reza Sharifi]

Hi,

So, do the 5ks need to route betweern VMs and the lan?

Is that is the case where is the gateway for each subnet/vlan.

Can you post "sh run" from the 5ks?

already create interface vlan xxx IP 192.168.1.254  (same subnet in vm)  

VM vsphere - ip add 192.168.1.10 

GW - ip add 192.168.1.254

i'm try to test dedicate 2 Port ETH and 2 Port FCOE it's working fine (i can ping IP and access VM,see in attach file ) but i need 4 port for FCOE (customer need 40G for fc and eth traffic not dedicate link for eth )

infomation

-N5K NPIV mode

-UCS mini end host-mode+FCOE uplink 4 port to N5K

-N5K trunk allowed vlan vm and vlan map vsan fcoe

-N5K interface vfc allowed vsan only (bind interface trunk above)

Configure the underlying 10-Gigabit Ethernet port that the vFC interface will be bound to. The VE port will use this interface as the physical transport for FCoE traffic between the two switches. This interface needs to be configured to trunk the appropriate FCoE VLAN as well as the Ethernet VLAN (in this example, we are using VLAN 200 to carry Ethernet traffic).

The 10-Gigabit Ethernet interfaces connecting the switches in this lab are shown in the topology above:

•Fabric A uses FCoE VLAN 10 and VSAN 10

•Fabric B uses FCoE VLAN 20 and VSAN 20

•PODX-N5K-1 (Fabric A) uses Ethernet 1/15 to connect to CORE N5K1

•PODX-N5K-2 (Fabric B) uses Ethernet 1/16 to connect to CORE N5K2

Configuration for both switches in Fabric A:

 switch(config)# vlan 200
 switch(config)# interface ethernet 1/15
 switch(config-if)# switchport mode trunk
 switch(config-if)# switchport trunk allowed vlan 10, 200
 switch(config-if)#
Configuration for both switches in Fabric A:

 switch(config)# vlan 200
 switch(config)# interface ethernet 1/16
 switch(config-if)# switchport mode trunk
 switch(config-if)# switchport trunk allowed vlan 20, 200
 switch(config-if)#
