1000V - Importance of the ' system vlan "in port-profile

Hi all

Can someone help me understand the importance of the command "system vlan" in a profile of port?

As I understand it, it was used to mark the criticisms of the system VLAN (package, data, etc.) to their config was pushed to vCenter so that they would continue to work the MSM should be down. Is this fair?

All of the examples I have watch seems to just mark every VLAN (data VM even VLAN) as "system vlan" in their profiles of prot ethernet uplink. Now that is best practice?

In addition, there is a reason to mark vEthernet with control panel ports vlan?

See you soon,.

P

As you already wear that system vlan is to ensure access to the vlan vsm to go down and then the esxi host is reset. If the system vlan was not enabled host esxi would not be able to talk to the vsm, but this is only the case if the management port using the Cisco VDS and not a VSS or VDS.

as I mainly use servers with only 2 ports 10 GB I use system VLAN for ESXi management / storage and vMotion and if the vCenter is a virtual machine, then also the vlan that uses. all other VLANS I don't not in the category system VLAN.

I use also a VSM Layer 3 so no need to worry the VLAN the packet and data.  But I use that I have several farms esxi in a different subnets from the management and the 1000v in a subnet for network management.

I hope this helps.

    We have a Dell M1000e blade chassis with a number of Server Blade M605 ESXi 5.0 using the Nexus 1000V for networking.  We use 10 G Ethernet fabric B and C, for a total of 4 10 cards per server.  We do not use the NIC 1 G on A fabric.  We currently use a NIC of B and C fabrics for the traffic of the virtual machine and the other card NETWORK in each fabric for traffic management/vMotion/iSCSI VM.  We currently use iSCSI EqualLogic PS6010 arrays and have two configuration of port-groups with iSCSI connections (a physical NIC vmnic3 and a vmnic5 of NIC physical).

    We have added a unified EMC VNX 5300 table at our facility and we have configured three VLANs extra on our network - two for iSCSI and other for NFS configuration.  We've added added vEthernet port-profiles for the VLAN of new three, but when we added the new vmk # ports on some of the ESXi servers, they couldn't ping anything.   We got a deal of TAC with Cisco and it was determined that only a single port group with iSCSI connections can be bound to a physical uplink both.

    We decided that we would temporarily add the VLAN again to the list of VLANS allowed on the ports of trunk of physical switch currently only used for the traffic of the VM. We need to delete the new VLAN port ethernet-profile current but facing a problem.

    The Nexus 1000V current profile port that must be changed is:

    We can probably remove the port-channel 2, but assumed that the error message on the port-profile in use is cascading on the other channel ports.  We can delete the other port-channel 4,6,8,10 orphans and 12 as they are associated with the orphan VEM, but we expect wil then also get errors on the channels of port 13,15,17,19,21 and 23 who are associated with the MEC assets.

    We are looking to see if there is an easy way to fix this on the MSM, or if we need to break one of the rising physical on each server, connect to a vSS or vDS and migrate all off us so the Nexus 1000V vmkernel ports can clean number VLAN.

    You will not be able to remove the VLAN from the system until nothing by using this port-profile. We are very protective of any vlan that is designated on the system command line vlan.

    You must clean the canals of old port and the old MEC. You can safely do 'no port-channel int' and "no vem" on devices which are no longer used.

    What you can do is to create a new port to link rising profile with the settings you want. Then invert the interfaces in the new port-profile. It is generally easier to create a new one then to attempt to clean and the old port-profile with control panel vlan.

    I would like to make the following steps.

    Create a new port-profile with the settings you want to

    Put the host in if possible maintenance mode

    Pick a network of former N1Kv eth port-profile card

    Add the network adapter in the new N1Kv eth port-profile

    Pull on the second NIC on the old port-profile of eth

    Add the second network card in the new port-profile

    You will get some duplicated packages, error messages, but it should work.

    The other option is to remove the N1Kv host and add it by using the new profile port eth.

    Another option is to leave it. Unless it's really bother you no VMs will be able to use these ports-profile unless you create a port veth profile on this VLAN.

  • System vlan on Nexus 1000v

    Hi all

    I understand that this vlan system allows the traffic flow for the vlan was VSM is not accessible, and vlan system should NOT be normal machine virtual traffic vlan. In my deployment of a normal vSphere environment with N1kv, I'll put these VLANS as system vlan: ESXi Mgmt N1kv mgmt, control & package, VMotion, storage over IP.

    I put the VLANs as system vlan on the uplink port profiles and indivdual port profiles for each VIRTUAL local area network. Correct me if that's wrong.

    What should be system vlan, or what those who shouldn't be system vlan? VMotion vlan? What are the disadvantages to specify all the VLANS as system vlan? Is it not better because even if VSM fell for a reason, MEC will still send traffic for all virtual machines?

    Thank you

    Ming

    Ming,

    Your understanding of the system VLAN is not totally accurate.  All them VLAN will be forwarding the case where your VSM is not accessible.  Each MEC module will continue to pass system and non-vlan traffic if the VSM is offline.  EACH MEC will keep its current programming, but will not accept any changes until the VSM is back online.  System VLAN behaves differently that they will always be in a State of transfer.  VLAN systems will transmit the traffic even before that a MEC is programmed by VSM.  That is why some system profiles demand them - IE. Control/package etc.  These VLANs must be transferred in ORDER for the MEC to talk to the VSM.

    As for your list of "what should be system VLAN"-remove VMotion.  There is no reason that your VMotion network should be defined as a system of VIRTUAL LAN.  All the others are correct.

    Also remember that you can ONLY define a VLAN on the port profile an uplink.   So if you use an uplink for 'system' type traffic and the other for traffic of type "Data VM", you would have just any single VLAN 'authorized' on an uplink - not both.  Allowing them the time will cause problems.   The only case, you have to keep in mind is that for a "system vlan" to apply, it must be defined on the Port of vEthernet profile and a profile of Uplink Port.

    E.g.

    Let's say my Service Console uses VLAN 10 and my VMs also use the VLAN 10 for their data traffic.  (Bad design, but just to illustrate a point).

    VLAN in "two places" seen set the system would you allow to treat ONLY the traffic of your "Service Console" as a traffic system and always apply security programming for your traffic "VLAN Data.  After a reboot, you Console of Service traffic would be routed immediately, but your VM data would not be until the MEC had pulled the programming of the VSM.

    profile port vethernet dvs_ServiceConsole type
    VMware-port group
    switchport mode access
    switchport access vlan 10
    no downtime
    System vlan 10<== defined="" as="" system="">
    enabled state

    Hope this clears your understanding.

  • Inter communication VM in two ESXi using the same VLAN ID

    Hello

    I am creating a lab in my server ESXi (192.168.1.10). The default VLAN (VMNetwork) connected to ESXi is VLAN 1. If the virtual machines with 192.168.1.xx IP. able to communicate to the external network.

    But I created a new 25 VLAN in my ESXi and added two virtual machines in that ESXi. Communication between these two VMs is perfect.

    My question is, what should I do if I need these 2 VMs to connect a computer virtual hosted in an another ESXi with 25 VLAN?

    Thank you

    Nithin

    Well lets go back to the original question:

    But I created a new 25 VLAN in my ESXi and added two virtual machines in that ESXi. Communication between these two VMs is perfect.

    My question is, what should I do if I need these 2 VMs to connect a computer virtual hosted in an another ESXi with 25 VLAN?

    If you don't want your VM in 25 a VLAN on a HOST to speak to other virtual machines in the VLAN 25 to HOST B, you will need to configure it as the attached picture:

    Your psyhical switch should the Tag VLAN on ports so that he knows how to route traffic.  Now I guess that your fault WHAT VLAN on all your switches is 1 as it is pretty standard.  VLAN 1 is also past reguardless so you will probably just tag with 25 ports VLAN.  Once the ports are all stamped this VLAN, they will be able to talk with success.  Now what happens, it's your 2 VMS in the vSwitch can talk because they are both on the same vSwitch with VLAN Tag on it, however, when you try to talk to another virtual machine to another host the package arrives at your psyhical pass and does not see a label on this port if it falls.  The only ports that you need to add this tag VLANS are the your NIC psyhical on the host with that vSS is connected.

    I hope that this has helped or made things clearer

  • PowerConnect 5448, how all the trunk of physical ports and allow all the VLAN tags to pass transparently

    I would like to achieve such a goal, do all acts of switch ports 5448 as 'trunk', that is, just as an entry-level switch. Yes, I want all the tags VLAN through seamlessly.

    Let me explain more clearly. If

    • With MAC1 PC1 is connected to switch port 1 (port 1) in short, PC2 with MAC2 is connected to port 2.
    • PC1 sends a packet with vlanid = 30 ethernet VLAN tag,.

    I want the ethernet packet must be SENT to port 2 without modification, i.e. 2 PC will receive the package with exactly the same byte packets that PC1 sends.

    Currently, I want to configure all ports from the switch to act like this, but how to do this? Can someone tell me the more concise CLI commands to achieve? Alternatively, it is possible via the web interface?

    I must again complain the poor manual, which talks about this concept and this notion over and over again (both of ambiguous statements that the author of manual does not), BUT doesn't explain them not at the level of the content of the packages, so I'm totally at a loss.

    I tried the web interface. Simply together port 1 and 2 for access mode or general mode does not work.

    Please help me. Thank you in advance.

    Thank you, Josh, you begin to point me in the right direction.

    Now, I know just affecting a Trunk port, or general mode is NOT sufficient.  I have to give what kind of package VLAN (i.e. what VLAN ID) are allowed to pass through.

    To do this assignment, I have to take 2 steps. say first of all, the database "vlan" to recognize a VLAN ID in the world, then say that some specific port is allowed to pass through with this VLAN ID specific packages.

    Thus, in order to pass packets VLAN with VLAN ID 18-25 no modified (marked packets in packages marked on) g7 to the g8 to port port, I have to do:

    Console # config
    Console (config) # vlan database
    Console(config-VLAN) # vlan 18-25
    Console(config-VLAN) # exit

    Console (config) # interface ethernet g7
    Console # switchport general mode
    Console # switchport General allowed vlan add the tag of 18-25

    and again for the g8. And if I want to 48 ports to act like that, I have to write this kind of order 48 times right? All the shortcuts?

  • The switch SLM224G does support VLAN per port?

    I'm looking for a simple solution create two LAN. One for my own and the other for my clients, who will be able to use the desktop computer with internet access. I only have one internet connection (ADSL over ISDN) and wil not get another just for my clients.

    My own network should not be accessible or visible to users who use the PC clients. The other way around is authorized, but not really necessary. My setup requires me to connect to the switch to the (ISP) router, and the router has a LAN port not able to do anything related to VIRTUAL networks.

    I read on the VLAN port to put here, where it is stated that creating separate LAN is just the ports in VLANS on the switch, nothing else to do... However, they used a NetGear smart switch.

    I checked SLM224G of Cisco because it is affordable, has 24 ports (instead of 8 for the NetGear) and must support of VLAN. I read a lot about VIRTUAL networks, including:

    «- Means the VLAN per port that you can reconfigure the ports to be in different VLANS.» VLAN per port does not confirm the 802. 1 q supported VLANS.

    -802. 1 q VLAN means you can mark the VLANS with 802. 1 q headers to create a trunk between two devices carrying frames for several VLAN. 802 1 q VLAN confirms that there are also supported VLAN per Port. »

    I knew by the sheets that the SLM224G supports 802. 1 q (tagged) trunking. So it should be, given the text above, also supports VLAN per port.

    My question is if it indeed will support VLAN per port?

    I am able to use it directly behind the router of my ISP and create two separate LAN?

    If so, a supplementary question: how are the PC behind the switch (inside the two VLAN) removes the ISP router IP addresses? It will serve only of the two LAN or do I have to install a DHCP server in the other LAN?

    Any information is welcome!

    Thank you.

    Mr. Bertrand,


    I read what you posted and I don't think the slm224g will do what your configuration you want to.  The reason behind all this, if you have installed 2 VLAN you will need 2 gateways for each network.  Since then just the ISP router and a network.  I'd get a router capable of VLANs and plug it into the router of the Internet service provider and then you can have up to 4 networks behind your router.  The rvs4000 is a router excellent gigabits, which supports up to 4 VLANS.  So if you need additional ports, you can get unmanaged switches and plug it into the router for added ports.

    Hi Gary,.

    It's just a simple case of the execution of the SYSTEM tablespace out of room by the look of it - you must be

    (1) add more space

    (2) stop task and re - run as another user who does not have the default tablespace of the system

    I'm not 100% sure what the table is that datapump creates (it is not the normal main table which is quite small) but I think it's probably to be created (and full) If you use the skip_constrant_errors parameter that records all lines that could not be loaded because of violations of constraints - if it is a large amount of data, omitting the table would get large enough.
