Command or Action |
Purpose |
Step 1 |
configure terminal
Example:switch# configure terminal
switch(config)# |
Enters configuration mode. |
Step 2 |
interface ethernet slot/port
Example:switch(config)# interface ethernet1/17
switch(config-if)# |
Enters configuration mode for the first Ethernet port. |
Step 3 |
shutdown
Example:switch(config-if)# shutdown |
Disables local traffic on the interface.
Note |
Shutting down the interface before enabling VN-Tag mode prevents the dynamic creation of a fixed vEthernet interface. |
|
Step 4 |
switchport mode vntag
Example:switch(config-if)# switchport mode vntag |
Enables port extender support on the interface. |
Step 5 |
interface ethernet slot/port
Example:switch(config)# interface ethernet1/18
switch(config-if)# |
Enters configuration mode for the second Ethernet port. |
Step 6 |
shutdown
Example:switch(config-if)# shutdown |
Disables local traffic on the interface. |
Step 7 |
switchport mode vntag
Example:switch(config-if)# switchport mode vntag |
Enables port extender support on the interface. |
Step 8 |
interface vethernet interface-number
Example:switch(config-if)# interface vethernet 1
switch(config-if)# |
Enters configuration mode for the first virtual interface for the first Ethernet port. |
Step 9 |
bind interface ethernet slot/port channel channel-number
Example:switch(config-if)# bind interface ethernet 1/17 channel 10 |
Binds the virtual interface to the physical interface and the specified port channel.
Note |
The port channel numbers of the virtual interfaces must match those configured on the vNICs. |
|
Step 10 |
no shutdown
Example:switch(config-if)# no shutdown |
Enables local traffic on the interface. |
Step 11 |
interface vethernet interface-number
Example:switch(config-if)# interface vethernet 3
switch(config-if)# |
Enters configuration mode for the second virtual interface for the first Ethernet port. |
Step 12 |
bind interface ethernet slot/port channel channel-number
Example:switch(config-if)# bind interface ethernet 1/17 channel 11 |
Binds the virtual interface to the physical interface and the specified port channel. |
Step 13 |
no shutdown
Example:switch(config-if)# no shutdown |
Enables local traffic on the interface. |
Step 14 |
interface vethernet interface-number
Example:switch(config-if)# interface vethernet 2
switch(config-if)# |
Enters configuration mode for the first virtual interface for the second Ethernet port. |
Step 15 |
bind interface ethernet slot/port channel channel-number
Example:switch(config-if)# bind interface ethernet 1/18 channel 10 |
Binds the virtual interface to the physical interface and the specified port channel. |
Step 16 |
no shutdown
Example:switch(config-if)# no shutdown |
Enables local traffic on the interface. |
Step 17 |
interface vethernet interface-number
Example:switch(config-if)# interface vethernet 4
switch(config-if)# |
Enters configuration mode for the second virtual interface for the second Ethernet port. |
Step 18 |
bind interface ethernet slot/port channel channel-number
Example:switch(config-if)# bind interface ethernet 1/18 channel 11 |
Binds the virtual interface to the physical interface and the specified port channel. |
Step 19 |
no shutdown
Example:switch(config-if)# no shutdown |
Enables local traffic on the interface. |
Step 20 |
interface ethernet slot/port
Example:switch(config)# interface ethernet1/17
switch(config-if)# |
Enters configuration mode for the first Ethernet port. |
Step 21 |
no shutdown
Example:switch(config-if)# no shutdown |
Enables local traffic on the interface. |
Step 22 |
interface ethernet slot/port
Example:switch(config)# interface ethernet1/18
switch(config-if)# |
Enters configuration mode for the second Ethernet port. |
Step 23 |
no shutdown
Example:switch(config-if)# no shutdown |
Enables local traffic on the interface. |
Step 24 |
With redundant switches, repeat this procedure with identical settings on the secondary switch. |
