Cisco Nexus 5500 enhanced vPC

Cisco Nexus 5500 enhanced vPC

In dieser Anleitung möchte ich auf die Cisco Nexus 5500 enhanced vPC Konfiguration des Switches eingehen.

2x_nexus_vpc_lab

In diesem Szenario verwendete Switches:
Cisco Nexus 5000er:
N5K-1 = IP 192.168.0.10
N5K-2 = IP 192.168.0.11

 

Grundkonfiguration für das Management Interface

Diese Einstellungen sollten eigentlich schon beim Initialen Setup des Switches gemacht worden sein aber zur Sicherheit sollte man das nochmal durchgehen.

N5K-1

configure
switchname N5K-1
interface mgmt0
    ip address 192.168.0.10 255.255.255.0
    no shutdown
    vrf member management
exit

feature ntp

vrf context management
    ip domain-name domain.tld
    ip name-server 8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4
    ip route 0.0.0.0/0 192.168.0.1
exit

no telnet server enable
clock timezone UTC 1 0
clock format 24-hours
clock summer-time EDT 2 Sunday March 02:00 1 Sundy November 02:00 60
ntp distribute
ntp server 0.debian.pool.ntp.org prefer use-vrf management
ntp commit

end

N5K-2

configure
switchname N5K-1
interface mgmt0
    ip address 192.168.0.10 255.255.255.0
    no shutdown
    vrf member management
exit

feature ntp

vrf context management
    ip domain-name domain.tld
    ip name-server 8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4
    ip route 0.0.0.0/0 192.168.0.1
exit

no telnet server enable
clock timezone UTC 1 0
clock format 24-hours
clock summer-time EDT 2 Sunday March 02:00 1 Sundy November 02:00 60
ntp distribute
ntp server 0.debian.pool.ntp.org prefer use-vrf management
ntp commit

end

 

Grundkonfiguration für den vPC

Auf dem N5K-1 und dem N5K-2 die Features VPC, LACP und FEX aktivieren.

configure
feature vpc
feature lacp
feature fex

end

Auf beiden Switches den vPC peer-link Konfigurieren.
Das Peer-Keepalive sollte immer über das Management Interface geschallten werden.

N5K-1

configure
vpc domain 2
    peer-keepalive destination 192.168.0.11 source 192.168.0.10 vrf management
    peer-gateway
    peer-switch
    ip arp synchronize
    delay restore 120
    graceful consistency-check
    auto-recovery
    auto-recovery reload-delay 240

interface Ethernet1/1-2
    description vpc peer-link
    channel-group 1 mode active

interface port-channel1
    description vpc peer-link
    vpc peer-link
    switchport mode trunk
    spanning-tree port type network

end

N5K-2

configure
vpc domain 2
    peer-keepalive destination 192.168.0.10 source 192.168.0.11 vrf management
    peer-gateway
    peer-switch
    ip arp synchronize
    delay restore 120
    graceful consistency-check
    auto-recovery
    auto-recovery reload-delay 240

interface Ethernet1/1-2
    description vpc peer-link
    channel-group 1 mode active

interface port-channel1
    description vpc peer-link
    vpc peer-link
    switchport mode trunk
    spanning-tree port type network

end

 

Grundkonfiguration für den Config Sync

N5K-1

configure
cfs ipv4 mcast-address 192.168.0.1
y
cfs ipv4 distribute

config sync
switch-profile sync
    sync-peers destination 192.168.0.11
    commit

end

show cfs status
show switch-profile peer

N5K-2

configure
cfs ipv4 mcast-address 192.168.0.1
y
cfs ipv4 distribute

config sync
switch-profile sync
    sync-peers destination 192.168.0.10
    commit

end

show cfs status
show switch-profile peer

 

Grundkonfiguration für die FEX

Hier sollte man darauf achten das man die FEX Ports gleich mit einem pre-provision versieht. So kann man die Ports schon konfigurieren auch wenn der FEX Switch noch Offline ist.

configure
fex 101
    description "FEX 101 N2K-C2248T-1GE"
    pinning max-links 1

slot 101
    provision model N2K-C2248T

fex 102
    description "FEX 102 N2K-C2232PP-10GE"
    pinning max-links 1

slot 102
    provision model N2K-C2232P

interface port-channel 101
    description "FEX 101 N2K-C2248T-1GE"
    switchport mode fex-fabric
    fex associate 101
    vpc 101
    no shutdown

interface port-channel 102
    description "FEX 102 N2K-C2232PP-10GE"
    switchport mode fex-fabric
    fex associate 102
    vpc 102
    no shutdown

interface Ethernet1/3-4
    description "FEX 101 N2K-C2248T-1GE"
    switchport mode fex-fabric
    fex associate 101
    channel-group 101
    no shutdown

interface Ethernet1/5-6
    description "FEX 102 N2K-C2232PP-10GE"
    switchport mode fex-fabric
    fex associate 102
    channel-group 102
    no shutdown

end
