Hi, we are running UCS ver 2.1.1e. We are doing multihop FCoE to the N5ks from the FIs. I noticed that if you bind the FCoE uplinks into a FCoE port-channel, you cannot tag ethernet vlans on it. BUT if you keep them as just FCoE uplinks you can tag vlans on them. Why is this behaviour?

Hello,
Are you using Unified port channel i.e are same physical ports members of Ethernet and FCoE port channel ?
Can you please the share output of " show run int .." from nxos to explain the observed behavior ?

Hi, so I have a scenario where the FIs are connected to N7ks for the LAN part and to the N5ks for FCoE. I want to steer certain vlans to the n5ks due to some requirement by using the vlan-groups. Ports 23 and 24 from the FI-A connect to n5k-A and the same for B side. config is -
ucs-A(nxos)# sh run interface eth1/23-24
version 5.0(3)N2(2.11e)
interface Ethernet1/23
description C: FcoeUplink
pinning border
switchport mode trunk
switchport trunk native vlan 4049
switchport trunk allowed vlan 2009,3009,4048-4049,4080-4081
no shutdown
interface Ethernet1/24
description C: FcoeUplink
pinning border
switchport mode trunk
switchport trunk native vlan 4049
switchport trunk allowed vlan 2009,3009,4048-4049,4080-4081
no shutdown
The VFCs config is -
wdb-labucs-A(nxos)# sh run int vfc 703-704
version 5.0(3)N2(2.11e)
interface vfc703
bind interface Ethernet1/23
switchport mode NP
no shutdown
interface vfc704
bind interface Ethernet1/24
switchport mode NP
no shutdown
Now, even though I see that the ethernet vlans are allowed on the physical ports, why don`t I see the physical interfaces under the vlan groups? Why do I need to change them to a Unified port?
