Downstream interface configuration
Each downstream (server-connected) interface is configured as follows.
1.
Create server-connected port channels. In this example, port channel 100 is connected to Server 1,
and port channel 101 is connected to Server 2.
a.
Give the port channel a description.
b. Use the
switchport mode trunk
command to enable the port channel to carry traffic for
multiple VLANs.
c.
Allow tagged VLANs 1614 through 1616 on the trunked port channel.
d.
Configure the port channel as an STP edge port.
e.
Specify that the port channel is a VLT port channel.
f.
Set the MTU to 9216 bytes to allow jumbo frames on the port channel.
2.
Configure the port-channel members.
a.
Give the physical interface a description.
b.
Add the physical interface to the appropriate port channel.
