MDS configuration for port channel

I tried to put in place the new download FC port channel to a pair of 9124 s MDS, but as I don't know enough on the side MDS, I can't the link to come. Are there references available anywhere say you blow by blow exactly how to set up the side MDS of the channel of the port? Or maybe an example of configuration work?

Thank you

I don't think it's possible to configure the fabric of interconnections, FC switch mode that only VAN is based on those. The only mode of switch that is taken in charge and possible to configure is the local network Ethernet switching mode.

I have configured the week last on a pair of 9124 s MDS and needed to activate the F port trunking and channeling Protocol feature by using this command

"feature fport-channel-trunk.

After that, I had to run SAN Port Channeling. Here's a snipit of my configuration:

npiv functionality
fport-channel-trunk feature

interface port-channel 11
active channel mode
rate switchport dedicated mode

interface fc1/1
port-license purchase
Channel-Group 11
no downtime

interface fc1/2
port-license purchase
Channel-Group 11

  • Router not configured for port forwarding

    I use a modem wireless to my ISP, they block all ports less than 1024 and I need to forward ports 80 & 440

    How can I solve this?

    If you configure your router for a LenovoEMC Personal Cloud and always see the message, "Not configured router for port forwarding" under personal cloud Configuration, one or more of the following ports are probably blocked by your internet provider (ISP): 80, 443or port selected in the range 50500-50599 .

    Port 80 is used for internet access (HTML UN-secure) in general. If this port is blocked, but the ports 443 and 50500 are open, the Personal Cloud will work correctly even if the error message appears.

    Port 443 is used for remote access on the host network storage device. If this port is blocked, but the port selected in the range 50500 is open, you will be able to use the Personal Cloud LenovoEMC and invite others to use it, but you will not be able to access your network storage device via the Internet URL. (See answer ID 30773 for more information on access remotely through Personal Cloud LenovoEMC.)

    A port in the range of 50500-50599 must be routed through the router to use the function LenovoEMC Personal Cloud. If this port is blocked by your ISP, you will not be able to access the Personal Cloud to your network storage device or invite others to join the Personal Cloud.

  • Port-channel problem between fabric Interconnect and vPC N7K

    Hi all

    I have a problem with the Port Uplink channel between fabric interconnect with N7K using vPC

    It's my network for the UCS deployment topology

    N7K I configured vPC for red link and green linkto the fabric Interconnect A I has configured the Port-Channel with Member is Port 1 and Port 2, uplink is red link. Interconnection fabric B, I have configured the Port-Channel with Member's Port 1 and Port 2, uplink's green link.

    The interface port-channel on N7K show is good, each port-channel upwards and have all members. But the fabric Interconnnect, when I see in the UCS Manager, the status of the Port-Channel on Fabic A and fabric B dysfunction not more info: no operational Member. Although all the link is a link to the top and I've got the status of the Port Channel is enabled in the UCS Manager. When I see the properties Port 1, Port to Port-Channel 2, I see the number of members status is: individual. This means channel port is not up and no member in this configuration. I want to using the port-channel load balance and more bandwidth for the uplink of 20Gig. I don't understand why?

    Please help me solve this problem, I have to send the screenshot of UCS Manager when I show the status of the Port-Channel and Port-member in port-channel to reach items.

    Can someone help me solve this problem, thanks a lot. References, please include elements for more details on the fault.

  • IOS NXOS VPC PORT channel

    Hello

    I have a pair of Nexus 5 K in an area of the VPC and few 2960's as members of the VPC, with a port to the domain channel.

    Topology is:

    5K 1 and 5 K 2 in the area of the VPC

    VPC 5 1 K and 5 K 2 to 2960

    2960 a gi0/1 and gi0/2 in 1 port channel

    Gi0/1 5 k 1, gi0/2 5 k 2

    I know what I'm going to ask can be completely against the purpose of the VPC, but I'm looking for a way to promote gi0/1 for traffic, rather than balancing on gi0/1 and gi0/2. The reaon for this is I want to take advantage of the absence of loop that provides mail ORDER, but would also like to have a link primary and secondary, as the majority of traffic should in fact go through 5K 1, rather than 5 K 2.

    Any suggestion is welcome.

    Thanks in advance

    Hi Anthony,.

    The Cisco NX - OS software load balance traffic across all operational interfaces in a portchannel by chopping the addresses in a numeric value that selects one of the links in the channel. Port channels provides default load balancing. It uses IP addresses, MAC addresses or layer port numbers 4 to select the port-channel-balancing link of the load. The port-channel load balancing uses the source or destination or port addresses, or both the source and ports or destination addresses.

    You can configure the mode of load balancing to be applied to all port channels that are configured on all of the device, or the specified modules. Each module configuration takes precedence over the configuration of load balancing for the entire device. You can configure a single mode of load balancing for the whole device, a different mode for specified

    modules and another mode of the other specified modules. You can not configure the port-channel load balancing method.

    You can configure the type of balancing algorithm used. You can choose the balancing algorithm that determines which Member port to select for the evacuation traffic by looking at the fields of the frame.

    Note: The mode of load balancing by default for layer 3 interfaces is the IP source and destination address, and the mode of the load balancing by default for non - IP interfaces is the source MAC address and destination.

    The configuration mode, you can try different method of load-balancing,

    port-channel - the balance of the load {dest-ip-port | dest-ip-port-vlan |}

    destination-ip-vlan. destination-mac | destination-port | source-dest-ip-port | source-dest-ip-port-vlan. source-dest-ip-vlan. source-dest-mac | source-dest-port | Source-ip-port | Source-ip-port-vlan. Source-ip-vlan. source-mac | source-port} [number of the module]

    To sum up: I can't tell which port would be chosen, it depends purely on image type you send with the combination method of load balancing.

    After you change you know also from the command which link takes the traffic.

    NEXUS2-SPAN # show the port-channel - the balance of the charge-transfer port-channel 71 src - ip 1.1.1.1 route dst - ip 2.2.2.2 VLANs 51 2 interface module

    Module 2: Missing params will be substituted by 0.

    Load balancing algorithm: src - dst ip-l4port

    RBH: port id out 0xb0: Ethernet8/8

    We can try also to rework the same NLB on the 2960 also. Is it purely depends on the algorithm of load balancing. Below is for 2960 balancing tweaking,

    http://www.Cisco.com/en/us/docs/switches/LAN/catalyst2960/software/release/12.2_53_se/configuration/guide/swethchl.html

    Even after doing this that I wouldn't say 100 percent, he would choose a link.

    I hope this helps!

  • Setting port channel between UCS - FI and MDS 9124 (Mode F)

    Dear team,

    We tried to create the channel of port between UCS FI and MDS 9124

  • Configuration port-channel, DTP, disabling

    Hi all

    I had a problem on the day where I wanted to attach a pile of 3750 x 2 to the network, the core is a 6500.

    There was a link configured for the core of the 3750 he had the configuration necessary trunk with BPDUFILTER active

    at the end of the base he had the standard configuration of trunk. The link is on the rise and work.

    Went to get a second battery for the heart link. Decided that DTC must be turned off at the end of the SWITCHPORT NONEGOTIATE battery

    the normal chest on the port configuration on the port channel port joined. Then suddenly the newspapers went crazy and right now, I need

    Spanning tree went crazy and started blocking areas of the network to avoid loops. There is STDS running in the network

    I had similar errors to this % SW_MATM-4-MACFLAP_NOTIF

    I pulled the battery cables and all services affected later came back.

    I know that enable the BPDUFILTER option stops at the port to participate in STP.

    Please could someone confirm due to the incompatibility of the config on these ports it has this problem or is there something I missed here

    Thank you mnay

    The BPDU filter is the root of the problem.

    You can't have two active rising running without creating a loop, unless they run into a PaGP/LACP-EtherChannel configuration. By having one or two links running with a filter BPDU, spanning Protocol tree on the 6500 didn't know that a link had to be in a deadlock state and he was panicked when MAC addresses on the stack of 3750 began to stir between interfaces.

    3750 cross media - stack EtherChannel using LACP, so if you want the resilience of two connections without having to factor in the covering tree branches, it is a good idea to combine the two in a group of channels and have both the 3750 and 6500 treat them as a single logical connection.

    If you want to keep them separated, you will need to remove the filters BPDU these ports and leave spanning tree figure things out properly.

  • Cisco 6500's inside the VSS Configuration. Port ID's channel

    Hello

    I have a pair of 6500's Setup with VSS and there is currently only one link between then.

    It doesn't make a difference if you do both sides with the same channel id or not. The ID of the port channel is a logical interface that does not impact on the etherchannel between them at all. So, you can leave one side Po10 and other like Po25 without problem. Just make sure you have at least one member of the Portchannel Active physical interfaces for not losing your connection to VSS.

  • How can I change the configuration for the output channels analog on a PXI-6704?

    I can't seem to understand how to access the configuration of the channels to the outputs analog (channel 33 and 35) for PXI-6704.

    This piece of test equipment is out of tolerance and must be calibrated.

    I have followed the procedure of calibration http://www.ni.com/pdf/manuals/374081b.pdf, but am getting hung up on step 8, where it is said to repeat steps 4-7 when changing the _cal_ao_current_offset. I can't figure out how to open this channel because it is not listed as a physical channel for step 5.

    I'm using Labview 7.1

    Thank you

    Hello! What you need to do is to add 'Internal channels' to your list of channels, so you can choose the _cal_ao_current_offset or _cal_ao_voltage_offset.  This is done through the drop-down list channel right click and select "I/o name of screening...". ».  There will be a check box that says 'Internal channels' and will provide you with all available internal channels to enter your vi Create Channel.  I have attached some photos illustrating how to do. See you soon!

  • Determine the NIF port used by the HEART when it is configured in a port channel

    I recently saw an excellent video of live Cisco UCS troubleshooting performance that showed how to track traffic network within Cisco UCS. The speaker made a comment however, to determine that NIF is used by a high HEAT when port-channels are used between the FEX and FI there are different commands to run. You will need to determine the outcome of hash-load balancing. Unfortunately, he never entered what were these commands.

    Then when we have pinned port-channel instead of HIFs and NIFs veths, what commands will indicate which way is used?

    Matt,

    You can use this command:

    B (nxos) # sh port-channel - balance load< this="" will="" tell="" you="" the="" load="" balance="" method="">

    If you use source-dest-ip as in my case, you can use this command:

    B (nxos) # sh port-channel - the balance of the charge-transfer interface port-channel ID vlan ID x.x.x.x y.y.y.y dst - ip, src - ip and it will show you something like this:

    Lack of params will be substituted by 0.

    Algorithm to balance the load on the switch: source-dest-ip
    crc8_hash: 109 port id coming out: EthernetX / Y  < this="" is="" what="" you="" are="" looking="" for="">
    Param (s) used to balance the load to calculate:
    DST - ip: y.y.y.y
    SRC - ip: x.x.x.x
    DST - mac: 0000.0000.0000
    CBC - mac: 0000.0000.0000

    For the blade, depends on which the active vNIC is, for the FEX, depends on pinning, based on the server is located in the blade slot.  Strange servers go through odd links and same servers through the same ports.

    The PowerConnect switches do not have the ability to show as much detail as the Force10 can. The RMON tables have an interface use %, what may be the closest we can do on the PowerConnect switch.

    #show rmon statistics

    I've seen some monitoring software which was able to question the switch via SNMP and get some information of bandwidth. However, this can be a bit inconsistent, according to which switch and what software is used.

    The MIBs/OID can be downloaded with the software switch.

  • Configuring the Ports of premium?

    Hello

    I have a camera (9636) sbRio with analog inputs which I use to acquire data. In my Labview project, I have listed the chassis and FPGA, and connectors. If I click on, say, AI0, I can set the sensitivity of tension (1, 5 or 10 volts) and is it a single differential completed connection or referenced. All very nice...

    The question is this - for a differential measurement, you need two ports. The manual for the sbRio helpfully informs me that those who would be AI0 and AI7 port on my device. BUT if I configure AI0 to be differential, AI7 becomes automatically differential. In other words, I could quite happily put AI0 be differential, and when I look at the configuration of AI7 he says still unique reference ended.

    So, what I have to change each port pair to be differentiated or is - this auto (in spite of what properties tells me)? What happens if I updated AI0 5 volts, differentials and AI7 1 volt CSR? That I could do, but shouldn't be able to! I'm * really * changing the configuration of the ports in the Properties tab. There is also no option under MAX to set up the Council for the CSR or differential!

    Can someone explain?

    Hi Jimbo76,

    I'm a sales engineer for National Instruments. When you configure a sbRIO for differential analog inputs, you must right click on the appropriate channel positive (AI0 - AI7) in the Project Explorer and select Properties. From here, you can customize the configuration of the channel, which you can then save by clicking OK.

    It is important to note that even if the complementary differential channel is always visible (AI(n+8) for all HAVE (n)), it is not active and should be ignored. I hope this helps.

    Kind regards

    Then, there are several native FC connections of the 5548 to of 6248. I know that there is the possibility to configure the channel port of CF on the UCS 2.0 but it is possible to link 5548 CF interfaces in a port channel san through a vpc between the nexus of 5548.

    so, for example, I can port-channel which follows through a vpc or is a channel of port san, limited to the same nexus only switch ports.

    Fc1/31 & fc1/32 fabric sent to-> NX5K - 1 Port fc1/31 & NX5K - 2 Port fc1/32 (san port-channel 10 on a VPC)

    Fabric B fc1/31 & fc1/32 passed to-> NX5K - 1 Port fc1/32 & NXFK - 2 Port fc1/31 (san port-channel 11 on a VPC)

    Thank you

    Ray.

    It is not possible. VPC is the only Layer 2 ethernet port channel. Port channel San cannot be built through vpc
