4.3.5.4.2
EVIC Configuration
Access the EVIC CLI using the rlogin <slot #> command within the switch CLI. Find
the interface with the hostname
(i.e., IBHost1 in this example), IOCGuid (i.e.,
0x66a02e1000110 in this example)
, and Instance (i.e., 1 in this example) using the
ethVirtInfoTable command. Assume that the host/IOC/Instance
combination
was found in the row for virtPort 56
. The user must perform the following steps for the
host ports (i.e., viPorts) and the Ethernet ports to allow VLAN tagging between
the host virtual port virtPort 56 and the Ethernet network. In the example assume
that external Ethernet port 2 is connected to the Ethernet network.
4.3.5.4.3
Host Port Configuration
1. Enable Egress rules on virtPort 56 with the command
vlanEgressRuleSet command:
vlanEgressRuleSet vi 56 1
2. Enable Ingress Rules on virtPort 56 with the command
vlanIngressRuleSet:
vlanIngressRuleSet vi 56 1
3. Allow packets in VLAN 11 to be sent to virtPort 56 with the command
vlanMapMemberSet:
vlanMapMemberSet vi 56 11 1
4. Remove the Ignore VLAN option on virtPort 56 with the command
ethVirtIgnoreVlanSet:
ethVirtIgnoreVlanSet 56
The configuration of the host ports on the EVIC is now complete. Next, the Ethernet
ports of the EVIC must also be configured.
4.3.5.4.4
Ethernet Port Configuration
Ethernet ports are configured in a similar way. As in the previous example, Ethernet
port 2 is used. To configure Ethernet ports, do the following:
1. Enable egress rules on Ethernet Port 2 with the command
vlanEgressRuleSet:
vlanEgressRuleSet eth 2 1
2. Tag packets going to Ethernet port 2 with VLAN tag 11 with the command
vlanMapTaggedSet:
vlanMapTaggedSet eth 2 11 1
