Use of the Trunk Ports (Cisco) on the management interface

Hi all

Background:

We are in the process of consolidation of 2 farms of esx servers and will end up with 10 guests in a single cluster. Guests come from 2 VLAN separate (say 10 of VLANs and vlan 20). A test I took one of the hosts of HA/DRS and tests with it. For HA and DRS to work efficiently and properly in common all resources, we all want vm to leave both VLAN access to move to any host in the cluster.

The test:

My single host mentioned above, I created 2 groups of ports on a vswitch, vlan10 tag and with vlan20, I deployed a VM and tried on the two IP address ranges. It worked (with the correct settings of defined IP by VLAN) but as soon as we resources shared the port used by the management of network vmkernel port we lost the connection to the HOST from a management perspective. What the question is that it is possible to connect the management network a trunk port? We have 2 network interfaces connected to the vSwitch and both used for the VM traffic as well as management traffic. That's how they are currently implemented except that the switch port is on a VLAN-specific rather than shared resources.

Thank you very much

Chris

Hi Chris

Yes, the network management also accepts the vlan tagging/trunking.

Just add the number VLAN on the Portgroup.

Maybe you can do a printscreen with the current configuration?

    The question is

    1. is a camera regardless of the interface is available for use with the LabView interface?

    Hello Virginia,.

    I am pleased that this information has been useful, one thing I wanted to mention is that USB 3.0 has its own standard USB 3.0 Vision which is currently not supported. If this camera is also Direct Show compatible then you will be able to acquire an image using IMAQdx and manipulate all the attributes that are published to the API Live Show.

    I hope that USB 3.0 Vision will be supported in the near future, and we tentatively announced for this standard of communication for the August 2013 Vision Acquisition Softwareupdate.

  • How do the management interface of configuration of an ethernet interface?

    We have an ASA 5540 requiring a LAN port for failover. And the left side of the interface available only the management port. How do the management interface of configuration of an ethernet interface?

    You can disable the mode of management only on this interface to make as regualr routable port and use for other purposes, including the purposes of failover LAN database.

  • ASA 5510 using only the GB interfaces

    I am looking for should I use a 5510 to activate two interfaces for VPN connections broadband from only a few sites. Our 5505 s (I have dozens) can not manage speeds of more than 100 MB and I have now a few FIOS beyond that--150 to 300mpbs.  I want a 5510 basis who needs to manage a few voice / data sites and just use two interfaces. A basic 5510 allow 2 gigabytes or just ports FE interfaces?  I have to be able to use 2 GB interfaces and no one else. I don't know that the 5510 will probably support the same QOS settings that I use on the 5505 s... I just need more speed interface so that I'm not bottlenecking data (I know I could use several 5505 s and extend the charges but is not how I want to do it for other reasons). Thank you

    Hello

    To my knowledge the ASA5510 supports 2 x 1 Gbps interfaces when you the Security license for the SAA. The basic license counts 100Mbps interfaces.

    Take a look at this document for more information on licensing above

    http://www.Cisco.com/en/us/docs/security/ASA/asa82/license/license82.html#wp190732

    Its a document from the 8.2 version but its still even to 9.x on the license requirement more security get the 2 x 1 Gbps interfaces

    The documentation for ASA5500 series promises an 300Mbps for the ASA5510 model flow, but I guess that's a value of location. In the most recent document, two values of max flow max and Multiprotocol are given.

    Here's a link to the document

  • ESXi 5, link group, VLAN and the Management Interface

    Greetings-

    I suspect that the answer to my question is: 'Buy an another NIC Intel' but here goes:

    I have a server ESXi here with 2 Intel GigE NIC, connected to the same switch managed ahead of Cisco.  A (vmnic0) NETWORK card is connected to the VLAN 200 while the second (vmnic1) is connected to the VLAN 300.  Ports on the Cisco are defined to access mode.

    Internally, the server ESXi, vmnic0 is connected to the 'public' vSwitch, while vmnic1 is connected to the "private" vSwitch

    I also updated the ESXi management IP 24 even as private vSwitch.  This is the key, I suspect.

    I tried to combine the two GigE interfaces in a connection unique 2xGigE and trunk two VLAN 200 and 300 through it.  After struggling through the menus on the ESXi console INTERFACE, I managed to get the IP management save and who responded and was able to connect to the server with the vSphere client.  I did it in X'ing the vmnic0 and vmnic1 in the configuration interface, then setting VLAN 300 in the configuration of VLANS.  But I could not the team/bundle correctly in the two vSwitches vmnic interfaces.  I could never attach a vmnic to one of the switches.

    Can I do all this with only 2 GigE interfaces and maintain access to IP management?

    SWITCH CISCO < == trunk w / VLAN 200 300 2xGigE == > SERVER ESXI

    VLAN 200 is a 28 audience

    VLAN 300 is a private 24 (for example: 192.168.100.0/24)

    IP management is 192.168.100.2

    I need to create a third VLAN for the management IP address and move?  If I master, say, VLAN 400 down to the ESXi server, use another block 192.168 for his IP address, I'll be able to take the vmnic0 and vmnic1 and team on the TWO vSwitches?

    Always follow me? ... :-)  If I can clarify this, by all means ask.  I apologize for the sort of random babbling here.  Thank you!

    Nice that you got it working! When you perform the actual configuration with vSwitch Hash IP and physical switch LAG config, it might be a little difficult to do things in the correct order to not lose connection to the ESXi host.

  • Vertical shift in the management interface?

    Hello

    On the PS6110, I know that this vertical failover works fine on the eth0 interface (10 Gig iSCS).  I tested several times and when I unplug eth0 on the (generally CM0) active CM, iSCSI traffic crosses to eth0 on the other CM (i.e. CM1).  Works very well.  However, when I unplug eth1 (management, 100 Mbps copper interface), failover to the interface on the other CM eth1 does not seem to occur.  Is it normal?  Is there a way to allow vertical failover for the management ports?

    Thank you

    I use the example of continuous series read/write and other simple programs to read data from the Arduino board, but I am facing a problem that my PC restarts wih blue screen when you read data from Arduino for 5 minutes.

    I don't know the reason and tried various solutions, including adding the number of bytes to Serial Port to connect with the VI series of reading.

  • [Q] how to build and install an SSL certificate signed for the management of a Cisco 5508 WLC?

    Our security policy requires that all web pages admin must be signed by our CA business. I have successfully implemented a SSL certificate 3rd party Auth Web our WLAN of comments, but I need to install a self-signed certificate for the management of the WLC himself. I followed the instructions here:

    http://www.Cisco.com/en/us/Tech/tk722/tk809/technologies_configuration_example09186a00806e367a.shtml

    but it was more useful for Web auth. I can't find a specific document explaining how it should be done for the management interface.

    Any help much appreciated.

    (1) Please use a password. Empty passwords regularly give problems.

    (2) you don't recombine the key with the certificate before you download to the WLC:

    Combine the CA.pem certificate with the private key, and then convert the file to a .pem file.

    Type this command in the OpenSSL application:

    openssl>pkcs12 -export -in CA.pem -inkey mykey.pem -out CA.p12 -clcerts
    -passin pass:check123 -passout pass:check123


    !--- This command should be on one line.

    Note: In this command, you must enter a password for the parameters -passin' and -passout . The password is set to the setting -passout must match the setting SubscriptionId is configured on the WLC. In this example, the password is configured at the time the -passin' and settings -passout is check123. Step 4 of the procedure in the section download the WLC third certificate of this document deals with the configuration of the SubscriptionId parameter.

    The final.pem is the file that is transferred via TFTP to the Cisco WLC.

    Now that you have the certificate of the third-party CA, you must download the certificate to the WLC.

  • Cloning of path and for the use of the network

    Hi all

    I am currently evaluating esxi 4.0 U1 and vcenter 4.0 U1.

    My delpoyment is currently two servers physyical with all esxi local storage, Server A and Server B. The server is a virtual machine running vcenter.

    My question is: If using vcenter to clone a virtual machine on a server and have its destination as server A, no traffic or the use is made by vcenter, Server A will do all the work on site OK for the path is A Server - & gt; A server?

    Now the part two, if you use vcenter to clone a virtual machine on a server and that its destination is

    Server B, the virtual machine will change from Server A - & gt; vCenter machine - & gt; Server B?

    What if I choose the image customization option that affects the above? Thank you

    An 'internal' cloning of an ESX works locally.

    But it will use the resources of storage... there still an impact of performance (only side storage).

    Cloning between ESXs also use the network (the service console, or the management interface) and, of course, storage.

  • Cannot create the IPv4 Interface on switch SG300-20 entries

    It is a brand new switch, mode of L3, and I am connected to port 5. By default, all ports are VLAN1 (management) defined as the PVID and are defined in trunk mode. I can connect without problems, and nothing else is connected to the switch.

    I did a master reset (via the web interface and button reset for 20 seconds) several times, and every time I try to assign an IP address to a VIRTUAL LAN on the page located at IP Configuration > GPI and Interfaces > Interface IPv4, I lose connectivity to the switch and it should be reset.

    I make no changes to the VLAN1 (management) or the port I am logged in, but the problem persists. My switch is bad? Thanks in advance.

    Hello Terry,

    It is done, your switch has several types of IP addresses,

    -static IP address (you set this)

    -dhcp (a server or router that sets)

    -default (if neither of the other is defined) 192.168.1.254.

    If the sg300 or 500 device has the default IP address and add another IP interface (on a virtual LAN or on a port), it will determine that static or dhcp is the management interface and the address 'by default' won't work any more.

    The workaround for this is:

    When you configure layer 3 routing on a sg300 or switch 500, once the switch is in mode l3, you must:

    1 - give each VLAN interface a static IP from vlan1.  This can be the same as the default 192.168.1.254, but I recommend to choose another address where you decide to add another switch in the future.

    2 - before you set an IP address on the new VLAN, assign a port of access to the new vlan (so you can move your desktop to this vlan) management if necessary.  management of VLAN--> belonging to a vlan port.  Once you assign the ip address and your management interface goes far, move your pc to port on the new virtual local network, give it a static and reconnect to the new IP address.

    3. use the cable from the console and CLI to configure the interface vlan, as the console port does not go down, or lose connectivity when configuring a VLAN.

    Hope this helps,

  • The ASA Independand IP management interface

    Hello

    I have a pair of ASA 5510 running like a pair of failover 8.4.

    Currently, we have 3 interfaces prod and are also using the management interface in the form of a group management interface.

    AS I joined the two using failover, the interface of management on the second ASA took the IP address of the first. Is it possible to exclude this HA interface so that we can manage, via IP, each device independently? The main reason for this is that two devices sit in different DC so we have another out-of-band to each site network.

    Thank you

    Anthony

    Hello

    I have not personally at least knows of anyway to do this because the devices share the same configuration and switch interface IP address depending on which device is active in the pair.

    To my knowledge each physical interface that is not configured for subinterfaces should be part of the default recovery. I guess in your case, even if it is not accomplish what you're after, you should probably configure "without monitor-interface", if not, to my knowledge, it might affect the State of failover?

    I don't know if there really is a way to make it work as you want. I think Cisco assumes that the management interface is like any other data interface in failover and it requires connectivity between sites where pairs of ASA.

    I guess it would be better if the Console port has been used for this purpose and you had a separate device you can remote access to the Console of the machine you want.

    If you want to send commands to the other ASA the failover and link then it is possible

    For example, you can connect to an ASA and execute commands from the failover link

    exec failover partner

    But again, I don't know if this will be of any help in your situation.

  • ESXi - Trunking for Cisco switch

    Hi, I'm having a little trouble to create a trunk to a crowd of v4.1 ESXi.

    My config on the switch

    interface GigabitEthernet3/29
    switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
    switchport trunk allowed vlan 100 300
    switchport mode trunk
    switchport nonegotiate
    spanning tree portfast trunk

    ESXi side VLAN ID has been set to all (4095) - side switch and host configurations is passed to the host of vCentre.

    Defining the interface of switching on an access on VLAN100 port, the host will stand fine. Problem is that I need another network to be consulted (VLAN300)

    interface GigabitEthernet3/29
    switchport access vlan 100
    switchport mode access
    spanning tree portfast
    end

    I am able to allow a second card on the host computer and the whole upward like a trunk as above, seems to work fine, even if I don't have a virtual machine upwards on it yet to test

    *

    My query is, how can we allow multiple VLANs to an ESXi host on a single card? What I'm missing here...

    Thanks in adavance.

    Brendan

    For me, looks like the vmkernel interface used for the management network is not be marked, as the host responds when you define the physical switch as an access port port in the VLAN 100. So either mark the vmkernel with VLAN ID 100 port or VLAN 100 native VLAN on the switchport physical... (switchport trunk vlan 100 native)

    When I read/write data to the virtual machine only on trunk ports now seems to manage the data and not both at the same time and with the same flow of data or usage that I expect.

    Is this expected behavior? I have something wrong or bad understand something here?

    Thank you

    Pascale

    I guess you are aware that the mechanism of hash IP packets with an IP - X to another IP - there are always transmitted only a single port physical thorugh, but never through multiple ports at the same time? Therefore, you will never get an increase in throughput for a single "conversation" between IP - X and IP - Y, no matter how much rising physical your chest has. This is due to potential for learning MAC layer 2 and other issues.

    Have you tested with a number of different source/destination IPs connections?

    If you have tested only a small number of connections, you could be 'unlucky' that the hash produced the same uplink of Teddy for all connections.

    Alternatively, you can view the network esxtop notice to see what Teddy what kind/loads of traffic.
