HP Intelligent Management Center v7.0 VAN Fabric Manager Administrator Guide

Managing EVI services on individual devices
An EVI service contains the basic EVI settings for an EVI tunnel. On an edge device, an EVI tunnel
represents an EVI network.
After deploying the EVI service for all edge devices in an EVI network, you can tune EVI service
parameters on individual edge devices.
Viewing the EVI configuration of a device
To view the EVI configuration:
1. Click the Service tab.
2. From the navigation tree, select VAN Fabric Manager > LAN Configuration > EVI.
3. Click the Device Management tab.
4. In the device list, click the Operation icon for the device, and then select View Config.
The Device Configuration page displays a toolbar and an EVI service list.
Toolbar
• Add—Add an EVI service for a device. For more information, see "Adding an EVI service
to a device."
• Delete—Remove an EVI service from a device. For more information, see "Removing an
EVI service from a device."
• Refresh—Refresh the EVI service list.
Service list contents
• Network ID—Network ID of the EVI tunnel for the EVI service. Each EVI service must have
a unique network ID. Devices of an EVI service must have the same network ID.
• Source IP—Source IP address or interface for the tunnel that conveys the EVI network. EVI
uses the specified address or the primary IP address of the specified source interface as
the source IP address of tunneled packets on the transport network.
• Tunnel Interface—EVI tunnel interface number.
• Extended VLANs—VLANs extended to other customer sites through the EVI tunnel.
• ENDP Role—ENDP role of the device:
◦ ENDC—EVI neighbor discovery client registers with an ENDS to learn neighbor
information.
◦ ENDS—EVI neighbor discovery server maintains all neighbor information in an EVI
network. The device is the only ENDS in the EVI network.
◦ ENDS/ENDC—The device is one of the two ENDSs in the EVI network, and it is also
the ENDC of another ENDS.
NOTE: You can configure up to two ENDSs for an EVI network.
• ENDS Address—IP address of the ENDS. This field displays two IP addresses if the network
has two ENDSs. These two ENDSs work independently. The field is empty if the device
is an ENDS.
NOTE: The EVI service list contains information collected in the most recent synchronization.
To update the list with the current settings on the device, perform a synchronization and refresh
the list.
