Note Layer 3 mode is supported for the Cisco Nexus 1000V for Hyper-V.

switch(config)#

Procedure

Complete the following steps to install the VSM on the Cloud Services Platform:

Step 1 Create a virtual service blade by entering the following commands:

switch(config)# show virtual-service-blade summary
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name HA-Role HA-Status Status Location
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
switch(config)# virtual-service-blade vsm-1
switch(config-vsb-config)# virtual-service-blade-type new Nexus-1000V.5.2.1.SM3.1.1.iso
switch(config-vsb-config)# show virtual-service-blade summary
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name HA-Role HA-Status Status Location
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
vsm-1 PRIMARY NONE VSB NOT PRESENT PRIMARY
vsm-1 SECONDARY NONE VSB NOT PRESENT SECONDARY
switch(config-vsb-config)#
 

Step 2 Configure the control and packet VLANs for static and flexible topologies. Note that no provisioning is allowed for a management VLAN because the management class interface uses the management VLAN of the Cisco Cloud Services Platform.

switch(config-vsb-config)# interface control vlan 391
switch(config-vsb-config)# interface packet vlan 392
 

Step 3 Configure the Cisco Nexus 1000V on the Cisco Cloud Services Platform.

switch(config-vsb-config)# enable
Enter vsb image: [Nexus-1000V.5.2.1.SM3.1.1.iso]
Enter domain id[1-1023]: 391
Management IP version [V4/V6]: [V4]
Enter Management IP address: 172.16.5.5
Enter Management subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
IPv4 address of the default gateway: 172.16.5.1
Enter HostName: vsm-1
Enter the password for ‘admin’: ********
Note: VSB installation is in progress, please use show virtual-service-blade commands to check the installation status.
switch(config-vsb-config)#
 

Step 4 Display the primary and secondary VSM status.

switch(config-vsb-config)#show virtual-service-blade summary
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name HA-Role HA-Status Status Location
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
VSM-1 PRIMARY NONE VSB DEPLOY IN PROGRESS PRIMARY
VSM-1 SECONDARY NONE VSB NOT PRESENT SECONDARY
switch(config-vsb-config)#
 

Step 5 Log in to the VSM.

switch(config)# virtual-service-blade vsm-1
switch(config-vsb-config)# login virtual-service-blade vsm-1
Telnet escape character is ‘^\’.
Trying 172.1.0.18...
