The first VLAN that is created must be the default or native VLAN, typically VLAN 1. The default VLAN must be created for any untagged traffic to cross the fabric. If you are implementing Fibre Channel configurations, you can also configure VLANs for FCoE. The storage arrays have two separate controllers that create two paths-SAN path A and SAN path B. These paths are connected to MX9116n FSE. For storage traffic to be redundant, two separate VLANs are created for that traffic. The following table lists examples of VLAN attributes for FCoE traffic: Table 15. VLAN attributes for FCoE Name Description FC A1 FCOE A1 Network Type Storage - FCoE VLAN ID 30 SAN A FC A2 FCOE A2 Storage - FCoE 40 B NOTE: For more information about SmartFabric and FibreChannel, see Dell EMC PowerEdge MX SmartFabric Configuration and Troubleshooting Guide available at https://infohub.delltechnologies.com/ Defining VLANs for FCoE To define VLANs for FcoE, follow the steps below: SmartFabric Services 91
