Creating VSAN Interfaces
Figure 51-10
Figure 51-10
IP address of VSAN 5
interface = 10.10.10 1
This example assumes that VSAN 5 is already configured in the VSAN database.
Note
To create a VSAN interface in the source switch for the scenario in
Command
Step 1
switchS# config t
Step 2
switchS(config)# interface vsan 5
switchS(config-if)#
Step 3
switchS(config-if)# ip address 10.10.10.1
255.255.255.0
Step 4
switchS(config-if)# no shutdown
Enabling FC Tunnels
To enable the FC tunnel feature, follow these steps:
Command
Step 1
switchS# config t
Step 2
switchS(config)# fc-tunnel enable
Be sure to enable this feature in each switch in the end-to-end path in the fabric.

Purpose
Enters configuration mode.
Configures the specified VSAN interface (VSAN 5)
in the source switch (switch S).
Configures the IPv4 address and subnet for the
VSAN interface 5 in the source switch (switch S).
Enables traffic flow through this interface.
Purpose
Enters configuration mode.
Enables the FC tunnel feature (disabled by
default).
