Hi,
I want to do such a simple thing as adding a new vlan in a vblock solution. The Vblock comprise
- a pair of 5548's,
- a pair of 6100 FI's
- Nexus 1000V on the VMware hosts (VEM and VSM)
Have done the following:
- Manually added the vlan on both 5548's
- Added the vlan to the necessary vlan allowed lists on the 5548's (switchport trunk allowed vlan)
-> Evrything seems to worh here for the 5548's
Further
- Added the vlan manually to the 1000V
- Added the vlan to the necessary vlan allowed lists (in port profiles)
-> all trunks seems to permit and transport the new vlan
so far so good ....
Further - added the vlan to the FI switches through UCS manager GUI
And here's where I get problems.
The VLAN seems to be added to the portchannel vlan allowed list - but not to the physical links allowed list.
For example:
interface port-channel101
description U: Uplink
switchport mode trunk
pinning border
switchport trunk allowed vlan 1,218,224,591,2802,4048,4050-4051
switchport trunk allowed vlan add 4053-4054
speed 10000
(2802 is the new vlan)
We can see that po101 comprise 8 ports:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Group Port- Type Protocol Member Ports
Channel
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
101 Po101(SU) Eth LACP Eth1/33(P) Eth1/34(P) Eth1/35(P)
Eth1/36(P) Eth1/37(P) Eth1/38(P)
Eth1/39(P) Eth1/40(P)
When I check the config for the individual ports i shows:
interface Ethernet1/33
description U: Uplink
pinning border
switchport mode trunk
switchport trunk allowed vlan 1,218,591,4048,4050-4051,4053-4054
channel-group 101 mode active
no shutdown
Strange!! Even though the vlan is in the Po's allowed list - it is NOT in the phys ports allowed list
Seems like it's impossible to configure the FI switches via NxOs ....
Obvioulsy it is not possible to transport L2 traffic via this VLAN through the FI switches.
What shall I do to solve this?
