Create a virtual Fibre Channel interface for the second Blade server and bind it to the MAC address of its FCoE
adapter 1:
o interface vfc2006
o switchport description vfc for server-2
o bind mac-address 00:17:a4:77:b8:dc
o no shutdown
Create the VLANs for the IP traffic:
o vlan 1,10,20
Create a trunk between the Nexus and the VC module Bay 1 with eth1/5 to pass the FCoE (VLAN 200) and Ethernet
traffic (VLAN 1,10,20):
o interface Ethernet1/5
o description FCoE uplink to VC-Bay1-X3
o switchport mode trunk
o switchport trunk allowed vlan 1,10,20,200
o spanning-tree port type edge trunk
Create a SAN port channel between the Nexus and the MDS-A using the two fiber channel interfaces:
o interface san-port-channel 100
o switchport description SAN-Port-Channel to MDS-A
o channel mode active
o switchport trunk allowed vsan 200
o interface fc 2/1-2
o switchport description Connected to MDS-A-fc1/9-10
o channel-group 100
o no shutdown
Note: It is also necessary to configure port channeling on the MDS-A switch. To configure of an E port-channel on
the MDS switch, use the following commands:
interface port-channel 100
channel mode active
switchport trunk allowed vsan 200
interface fc1/9-10
switchport description Connected to Nexus-A-fc2/1-2
channel-group 100
no shutdown
Assign the Virtual Fibre Channel interfaces (vfc) and the SAN Port Channel to the FCoE VSAN:
o vsan database
o vsan 200
o vsan 200 interface san-port-channel 100
o vsan 200 interface vfc 2005
o vsan 200 interface vfc 2006
Configure the interface connected to the datacenter LAN:
o interface eth 1/17
o switchport mode trunk
o switchport trunk allowed vlan 1,10,20
