scsirouter serverif
Usage Guidelines The specified interface IP address is configured on IP hosts requiring access to storage resources through
the SN 5428-2 Storage Router.
Each SCSI routing instance requires two active elements:
• The serverif element assigns an interface and IP address for use by IP hosts requiring access to
storage resources. The instance becomes active when this interface is added. A SCSI routing
instance can have multiple serverif elements; one IP address per logical interface can be configured
for a SCSI routing instance.
• The target element is a complex item that specifies the mapping between LUNs on the storage
devices and the host systems.
The scsirouter serverif vlan command is used to associate a VLAN with a SCSI routing instance. All
traffic using the specified Gigabit Ethernet interface will be considered as part of the VLAN; all IP hosts
accessing storage through the SN 5428-2 using the specified Gigabit Ethernet interface IP address must
connect as part of the specified VLAN.
When the SCSI routing instance is started, a logical interface (for example, ge2VLAN100) is created,
which incorporates the physical interface and the VID. This logical interface can be displayed via the
show interface command.
If the secondary keyword is used, both Gigabit Ethernet interfaces must be connected to the same
network segment. If the primary interface goes down and remains down for two seconds, the IP address
will be moved to the secondary interface.
Note If you configure a Gigabit Ethernet IP address with a secondary interface, all Gigabit Ethernet IP
addresses on the same subnet must also be configured with the same secondary interface.
Examples The following command adds the Gigabit Ethernet interface ge1, with the IP address 10.1.10.128/24, to
the SCSI routing instance named foo2.
[SN5428-2A]# scsirouter foo2 serverif ge1 10.1.10.128/24
The following command adds the Gigabit Ethernet interface ge2 and VLAN ID 45, with IP address
10.1.30.128/24, to the SCSI routing instance fooA. If the primary interface is not available, the IP address
will be moved to the secondary Gigabit Ethernet interface, ge1. The Gigabit Ethernet interfaces must be
connected to the same network.
[SN5428-2A]# scsirouter fooA serverif ge2 vlan 45 10.1.30.128/24 secondary ge1
