• Affecting several VLANS to a Port Group

  Hi all!

  We have 2 switches farm of server connections to the host server. Each of our 8 ESX servers has 4 physical network adapters that support virtual machines. We have 2 network cards to each physical switch. We have a single vSwitch and 2 port VM groups set up on each ESX Server. We use and configuration active / standby in Port groups so we can control what physical move the VM speaks to. All 4 network cards are available for the Group of ports, with connections going to spend 1 active and forward to switch connections 2. It is reversed on the other group of Port.

  We have several VLANS associated with our data center. Is it possible to put the tag VLAN on 2 port groups VM to support multiple VLANs? Otherwise, I think we have to put up a pair of these groups of ports for each VIRTUAL local area network, we want to make it available to the virtual machines on each ESX Server. Is this correct? We have some circuits/EtherChannel enabled on switches that work properly. However, we cannot port VM groups to pass traffic unless label them us, and it seems we can only enter a VIRTUAL local area network in the area.

  Thank you in advance for your help!

  To use the trunks that are coming in your ESX host, you must have your VLAN Tag somewhere along the way.  If you are not at the level of the switch (since you're trunking), you will need to do the vSwitch, either the level of the virtual machine.

  VSwitch level, this by creating exchanges and then marking at the level of the port group.  Marking that is currently happening in the ESX/vSwitch, and your vm must use the port suitable for group the VLAN they need to use.

  Your last option is to tag at the level of the virtual machine itself.  To do this, your vSwitch must use VLAN 4095 tag, which allows all the VLANS to pass through, and all tags are marked.  The portgroup vSwitch here is basically a tunnel and will allow the unmodified traffic, but now, you have to mark your VLAN of the NETWORK adapter in your virtual machine.  It is very effective if you have a large number of virtual machines.  The most practical method will be to create the VLAN-based exchanges at the vSwitch level and go from there.

  Unlettered, somewhere, communication will not incorrectly, as the physical switch will assume that all traffic not marked will even vlan uses unmarked frames (vlan native), and machines on that vlan can communicate each other.

• srw2008 snmp vlan to the port

  Hello

  I need to know is there any option to get the ports which some vlan is added with snmp?  I found this oid 17.7.1.4.5.1.1 with snmpwalk. gives information on identifying port and vlan So far so good, but it's the way to see only untagged VLAN on ports. I was not able to find all the data on the VLANs on the ports. There are some OID with hexadecimal codes that change by changing the marking port but I can't understand them.

  Enter the OID in google. If you don't find anything, remove the last number. Search until you find something, for example this.

  OIDS are bit masks:

  09 = 00001001
  11 = 00010001

  Are you sure that you invert not that?

  The first (highest) bit seems to be port 1, the port according to 2, etc. The first output would look like is a member of the VLAN 5 and 8. The second is member of 4 & 8.

  F6 and EA are excluded ports. Same again here:

  F6 = 11110110
  EE = 11101110

  I'll have to check on my SRW...

• Voice & data VLAN switch 3448 (Multi-VLAN)

  Hello

  I have a 3448 switch that I'm considering using for this project, but not sure if taken in charge.

  I have IP phones I want to place on a VLAN voice and always plug the workstations on the ethernet port on the phone and be on his own DATA VLAN. Then I'd be trunk a switch port to our Cisco ASA 5520 firewall where the secondary interfaces are configured to manage routing.

  This switch is capable of doing such a thing?

  So VOIP traffic needs to be referenced, but the DATA LAN should not. What is the right configuration?

  Any help of additional information, etc. is appreciated...

• How to create and assign a VLAN to specific ports

  In our ISA550W, create the VLANS for different subnets and assigning them to specific ports are a piece of cake and self explanitory.

  However on a SG300-10MP, I am totally lost lol. I just want to make ports 7 & 8 set to a sous-reseau.10 instead of un.6 as the rest of the switch. I need these ports to be totally independent from the rest and not to communicate with others at all.

  How can I do this?

  Thank you!

  Hi Alex,

  Under management of VLANS, go into settings of the interface.  Change the interfaces that you use to access the ports by choosing the way you want by clicking on change.

  Once they are access ports back to Port for page VLAN and assign the port desired as one not marked in this interface.

  This should be everything you need, let me know if you have any other questions.

• SGE2010 switches, VLAN and a port blocked by spanning tree

  People,

  I have 2 groups of switch.

  SGE2010 2 with VLANS is defined as 10,20 and 30

  VLAN 10 is the management VLAN and it uplinks to our border router.

  VLAN 20 is the workstation VLAN, and all workstations are pointing to the switch as their default GW

  VLAN 30 is the ip phone VLANS, and all phones use this as a gateway.

  I have a GAP between the switches said, we have a few servers on the ip phone switch that must be accessed by the clients of the workstation and the unique link of 100 MB through the router probably won't be enough.

  If I understand correctly, because the switches have different networks on them, a simple shift will not work. I did create a gap and addresses on each side, but it does not appear in this mode, I can block vlan 10 transit to the LAG, with this block I'll end with a logic loop and spanning tree will block the uplinks or LAG itself.

  I have attached a picture with a diagram of our current put in place.

  Any help/advice would be much appreciated.

  John, the 802 standard. 1 initial q indicates there isn't only global tree covering weight independently of belonging to a vlan. It's why you run into problems. Cisco has developed PVST to run on circuits of the ISL. BPMH was originally defined as 802. 1s, which is a combination of 802. 1 q + RSTP. The 802. 1s were later modified to become part of the 802. 1 q.

  The person is incorrect, because they cite "because spanning tree is construction by vlan. They are incorrect, because you have to set the properties of tree cover to allow the spanning tree protocols by vlan. Small business switches do not support the owner Cisco PVST and PVST +. However, the SB switches support BPMH which is a standard of the IEEE.

  How works the BPMH, it's that you have called proceeding, i.e. each construction covering tree. Then you have the region, SB switches support only 1 region. The region maintains the instances. Basically how it works, you activate the EMU at the global level. Then, you specify the instance. As an example, the vlan 1 is instance 1. VLAN 2 is 2.  This will allow you to run 2 physical wires between switches vlan different without looping. If you use classic STP or RSTP, the least costly path will go to the State to block/cast who works as expected.

• vSphere port replication group

  What type of failover policy is necessary for a port of dvs group used for replication of vSphere? (active / active)?  (active / standby?)

  I recommend always to use Active/active, unless there is a reason not to. For example, if you have two cards of VMkernel iSCSI on the same subnet and you must use the binding of ports.

• Remove the ' system VLAN "Nexus 1000V port-profile

  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:

  The DenverMgmtSanUplinks type ethernet port profile

  MGMT RISING SAN description

  We must remove the list ' system vlan "vlan 2313-2315 in order to remove them from the list" trunk switchport allowed vlan.

  However, when we try to do, we get an error about the port-profile is currently in use:

  vsm21a # conf t

  Enter configuration commands, one per line.  End with CNTL/Z.

  vsm21a (config) #-port ethernet type DenverMgmtSanUplinks profile

  ERROR: Cannot delete system VLAN, port-profile in use by Po2 interface

  We have 6 ESXi servers connected to this Nexus 1000V.  Originally they were MEC 3-8 but apparently when we made an update of the firmware, they had re - VEM 9-14 and the old 6 VEM and associates of the Channel ports, are orphans.

  By example, if we look at the port-channel 2 more in detail, we see orphans 3 VEM-related sound and it has no ports associated with it:

  Sho vsm21a(config-port-Prof) # run int port-channel 2

  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.

• vWorkspace, VMware and NetApp in Multi-VLAN configuration

  Hi all.

  Today started testing the trial vWorkspace and facing a big problem with the working conditions with Netapp FlexClone and:
  Good practices place NFS traffic as a separate network and vlan, as 172.16.1.0/24 and separate a switch. Management of intellectual property, respectively, to its network and its 192168.100.0/24 vlan.

  VMmware vCenter has certainly, through ESXi, access servers, and for "vWorkspace' only watch 'NFS' network to which she has access courses. Accordingly, there is no way to specify the administration server for NetApp FlexClone.

  PS Ah, such a very small trial period and these intractable problems.

  PSPS sorry for my bad English please.

  Alexey salvation,

  vWorkspace does not take too much traffic when he speaks with a NetApp controller. You can allow the servers broker vWorkspace to access your NFS network.

• 3550 Config for multi VLAN on a 1200 AP

  I'm testing a presentation wireless with several VIRTUAL LANs in a sandbox test lab. I am trying to run 3 VLAN on one allows 1200 AP. say 300 VLAN (10.50.0) is 40 bit WEP, 400 of VLAN (10.50.1) is open, 900 (10.50.2) VLANS is 128 bit WEP. VLAN 400 is the VLAN native with the AP 10.50.1.1 (I utilise.254 for gateways de.1 instead)

  The configuration of the AP is well documented. The problem is that I have a layer 3 3550 switch I need to configure Fa0/23 for the VLAN multiples to the AP. I couldn't dig up documentation for the configuration of the side of the switch. Can someone point me in the right direction for this configuration documentation or?

  Thank you

• Several virtual machines attached to port VM group

  Hi all

  So I did research on the internet and on this forum and I have not found a good answer to my question. So I would check that I can create a unique Virtual Machine port group and attach multiple virtual machines and run them simultaneously. I basically want to have each VM attached to this switch, but instead to a separate port group, it seems that I can just attach to the same port group that puts on the vSwitch.

  Is there problems of L2 with MAC address or ARPing or something like that? I realize that I have to ensure that each VM has correctly configured the IP settings. I know there are problems, but I am wanting clarification of the people who have done this before. Are there problems of interface as with a real switch speed or who is not serious in a vSwitch?

  Thank you!

  -GNS

  You can attach multiple virtual machines to the same group of port without problems, this is how normally environment are created. Have a look here for more details: vSphere Standard switches

  The image below shows several virtual machines connected to the same port group:

  

• Increase the number of ports on the port vDS group

  Hi all

  I know that I can increase or decrease the number of ports in a port group easily using the vSphere Standard switch. I can't find how to do this on my Nexus 1000v vDS however. Each group of port that I configured on the vDS has only 32 ports available and it becomes a problem.

  If anyone knows how to increase ports and/or where the documentation is for this, let me know. Thank you!!

• Port group of VM moving with existing VM to vSwitch0 to a new vSwitch1 with the new port VM group

  Hello

  My vSphere 4 host has been configured from the settings default after having only a single vSwitch (vSwitch0) and eventually populated by 2 VMs now.

  I'm now changes to the configuration of the network of vCenter and adding a new vSwitch (vSwitch1) with a new group of computer Virtual Port.

  How can I safely move my 2 existing VMs to vSwitch0 to the new VM Port Group in vSwitch1?

  Thank you.

  Just go to the virtual machines 'change settings', click on your card and the network (by choosing the new label of network). This will move the virtual machine safely.
