7.3.3 Configure interfaces Configure the interfaces for the jump box or laptop computer connections to be used during VxRail deployment. This example uses 10GbE interfaces 1/1/9:1 and 1/1/10:1. Note: See Appendix B to change the native speed of S5248F-ON port groups from 25GbE to 10GbE for jump box or laptop computer connections. While only one connection to the jump box is required, two may be used for redundancy. Add these interfaces as access ports on VLAN 1611 (the External Management VLAN). Note: In this example, the jump box also provides DNS and NTP services as covered in Section 5.4. If these services are located on other devices, ensure the corresponding switch interfaces are also in the External Management VLAN. Configure the interfaces for connections to the VxRail nodes. Interfaces 1/1/17 through 1/1/24 are used in this example. Use the switchport mode trunk command to enable ports to carry traffic for multiple VLANs. Configure the ports as access (untagged) ports on VLAN 1611 (the External Management VLAN). Configure the ports as trunk (tagged) ports on VLANs 1612-1615, and 3939 (the vMotion, vSAN, VM Network, and Internal Management VLANs). Configure ports directly connected to nodes, servers, or other endpoints as STP edge ports. Set flow control to "receive on" and "transmit off" on node-connected ports as a best practice. Note: Flow control is enabled on all network interfaces in ESXi by default. For more information, see VMware vSAN Network Design. When the configuration is complete, exit configuration mode and save the configuration with the end and write memory commands.

7.3.3
Configure interfaces
Configure the interfaces for the jump box or laptop computer connections to be used during VxRail
deployment. This example uses 10GbE interfaces 1/1/9:1 and 1/1/10:1.
Note:
See Appendix B to change the native speed of S5248F-ON port groups from 25GbE to 10GbE for jump
box or laptop computer connections.
While only one connection to the jump box is required, two may be used for redundancy. Add these interfaces
as access ports on VLAN 1611 (the External Management VLAN).
Note:
In this example, the jump box also provides DNS and NTP services as covered in Section 5.4. If these
services are located on other devices, ensure the corresponding switch interfaces are also in the External
Management VLAN.
Configure the interfaces for connections to the VxRail nodes. Interfaces 1/1/17 through 1/1/24 are used in this
example.
Use the
switchport mode trunk
command to enable ports to carry traffic for multiple VLANs. Configure
the ports as access (untagged) ports on VLAN 1611 (the External Management VLAN). Configure the ports
as trunk (tagged) ports on VLANs 1612-1615, and 3939 (the vMotion, vSAN, VM Network, and Internal
Management VLANs).
Configure ports directly connected to nodes, servers, or other endpoints as STP edge ports. Set flow control
t
o “receive on” and “transmit off” on node
-connected ports as a best practice.
Note:
Flow control is enabled on all network interfaces in ESXi by default. For more information, see
VMware
vSAN Network Design
.
When the configuration is complete, exit configuration mode and save the configuration with the
end
and
write memory
commands.
