Associate each VLAN with a VSAN for each FCoE networks:
o vlan 200
o fcoe vsan 200
o vlan 300
o fcoe vsan 300
Note: Enabling FCoE on VLAN 1 is not supported.
Create a port channel with the 5900 switch A with eth1/11 and eth1/12
eth1/11 and eth1/12 can be used because both are mapped to the same UPC (i.e. UPC#2) on Nexus 5010 (for more
information see Appendix A):
o interface ethernet 1/11-12
o channel-group 300 mode active
Create the VLANs for the IP traffic:
o vlan 1,10,20
Create a trunk on the port channel interface to pass FCoE VLANs 200 and 300 and Ethernet traffic (VLAN 1,10,20):
o interface port-channel 300
o description FCoE Port Channel to 5900-A-GE1/0/16-17
o switchport mode trunk
o switchport trunk allowed vlan 1,10,20,200,300
Create a virtual Fibre Channel interface for the FCoE Port Channel connected to the 5900 Switch-A to pass the FCoE
VSANs 200 and 300:
o interface vfc1000
o description vfc for Port Channel to 5900-A-GE1/0/16-17
o bind interface port-channel 300
o switchport trunk allowed vsan 200
o switchport trunk allowed vsan add 300
o no shutdown
Create a virtual Fibre Channel interface for the FCoE-based storage target and bind it to eth1/1:
o interface vfc2007
o description vfc for EVA
o bind interface eth1/1
o no shutdown
# Assign it to VSAN300 as a trunk port
o switchport trunk allowed vsan 300
Create a trunk on the interface connected to the EVA FCoE-based storage device to pass the FCoE traffic VLAN 300:
o interface Ethernet1/1
o description FCoE uplink to EVA
o switchport mode trunk
o switchport trunk allowed vlan 300
o spanning-tree port type edge trunk
Configure the Fiber Channel interface connected to the 3PAR array using VSAN 200:
