Enter yes, when asked to configure out-of-band management and then enter the mgmt0 IPv4 address and subnet mask.
Example:Continue with Out-of-band (mgmt0) management configuration? [yes/no] [y]: yes
Mgmt0 IPv4 address: 172.28.15.152
Mgmt0 IPv4 netmask: 255.255.255.0 |

Example:Configure the default-gateway: (yes/no) [y]: no
IPv4 address of the default gateway : 172.23.233.1 |
Step 12 |
Enter yes when asked to enable the Telnet service.
Example:Enable the telnet service? (yes/no) [y]: yes |
Step 13 |
Enter yes when asked to enable the SSH service, and then enter the key type and number of key bits. For more information, see the Cisco Nexus 1000V InterCloud Security Configuration Guide.
Example:Enable the ssh service? (yes/no) [y]: yes
Type of ssh key you would like to generate (dsa/rsa) : rsa
Number of key bits <768-2048> : 1024 |
Step 14 |
Enter yes when asked to enable the HTTP server.

Example:Configure NTP server? (yes/no) [n]: no |
Step 16 |
Enter no when asked to configure the VEM feature level.
Example:Vem feature level will be set to 4.2(1)SV1(4a).
Do you want to reconfigure? (yes/no) [n] no The system now summarizes the complete configuration and prompts you to edit it.
Example:The following configuration will be applied:
interface Mgmt0
ip address 172.28.15.152 255.255.255.0
no shutdown
vrf context management
ip route 0.0.0.0/0 10.78.111.11
no telnet server enable
ssh key rsa 1024 force
ssh server enable
feature http-server
svs-domain
svs mode L2
control vlan 1
packet vlan 1
domain id 1 |
Step 17 |
Enter no when asked if you would like to edit the configuration.
Example:Would you like to edit the configuration? (yes/no) [n]: no
Enter SVS Control mode (L2 / L3) : L2
Enter control vlan <1-3967, 4048-4093> : 100
Enter packet vlan <1-3967, 4048-4093> : 101 |
Step 18 |
Enter yes when asked to use and save this configuration.
Example:Use this configuration and save it? (yes/no) [y]: yes
[########################################] 100%
If you do not save the configuration now, then none of your changes are part of the configuration the next time the switch is rebooted. Enter yes to save the new configuration. This ensures that the kickstart and system images are also automatically configured. |
Step 19 |
In the vSphere Client, right-click the VSM and choose Edit Settings. The VSM Virtual Machine Properties window opens.
Figure 17. VSM Virtual Machine Properties Window
|
Step 20 |
In the Hardware/Summary pane, choose Network adapter 2. |
Step 21 |
Check the Connect at power on check box. |
Step 22 |
Log in to the VSM. |
Step 23 |
Copy the backup configuration to the VSM bootflash by entering the following command:
Example:switch# copy scp://root@10.78.19.15/tftpboot/backup/VSM-Backup-running-config
bootflash:
Enter vrf (If no input, current vrf 'default' is considered):
The authenticity of host '10.78.19.15 (10.78.19.15)' can't be established.
RSA key fingerprint is 29:bc:4c:26:e3:6f:53:91:d4:b9:fe:d8:68:4a:b4:a3.
Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? yes
Warning: Permanently added '10.78.19.15' (RSA) to the list of known hosts.

Step 26 |
In the Device Status area, check the Connect at power on check box. |
Step 27 |
Confirm that the VEMs are attached to the VSM by entering the command show module |
Step 28 |
Copy the backup configuration to the running configuration by entering the command copy bootflash:VSM-Backup-running-config running-config This step is necessary for features like ERSPAN/NFM. |
Step 29 |
Register the Cisco Nexus 1000V InterCloud VSM with Cisco Prime Network Services Controller. On the Cisco Nexus 1000V InterCloud VSM CLI, enter the following commands: switch# configure terminal
switch(config)# nsc-policy-agent
switch(config-nsc-policy-agent)# no policy-agent-image
switch(config-nsc-policy-agent)# no shared-secret
switch(config-nsc-policy-agent)# shared-secret Example_Secret123
switch(config)# policy-agent-image bootflash:///vsmcpa.3.0.1c.bin
switch(config)# exit |
Step 30 |
Copy the running-configuration to the startup-configuration by entering the following command:

[########################################] 100%
switch# |
Step 31 |
Confirm that the VEMs are attached to the VSM by entering the command show module |
Step 32 |
Create the standby VSM by using the OVA/OVF files to form an HA pair. |
