7 7.1 Configure spine switches This chapter details the configuration commands issued to the two Z9264F-ON spine switches, Spine1 and Spine2. The switches start at their factory default settings per Section 5.3. The commands in the sections that follow should be entered in the order shown. Note: Both spine switch configuration files are provided as text file attachments to this .pdf. Section 1.2 describes how to access .pdf attachments. The configuration of the spines consists of interface configuration and BGP configuration. Initial configuration settings 1. Enter configuration mode with the configure terminal command. 2. Configure the hostname. 3. If DHCP is not used, configure the OOB management IP address and default gateway. 4. Enable spanning tree protocol as a precaution against loops. Any spanning tree protocol type supported by the switch is acceptable. This example uses RSTP. 5. Enable BFD. Initial configuration settings Spine1 configure terminal Spine2 configure terminal hostname Spine1 interface mgmt 1/1/1 no ip address ip address 100.67.166.237/24 no shutdown management route 0.0.0.0/0 100.67.166.254 hostname Spine2 interface mgmt 1/1/1 no ip address ip address 100.67.166.233/24 no shutdown management route 0.0.0.0/0 100.67.166.254 spanning-tree mode rstp bfd enable spanning-tree mode rstp bfd enable 7.2 Downstream interface configuration In this section, the six point-to-point interfaces to the Leaf switches downstream are configured, and the router ID is assigned. 1. For each downstream interface: a. Provide an interface description. b. Put each interface into Layer 3 mode by running the no switchport command and assigning an IP address per Table 1. c. Set the MTU to 9216 bytes to allow jumbo frames. 31 Dell EMC Networking Virtualization Overlay with BGP EVPN
