Configuring the converged network switch

NOTE

Use procedures in this section to configure the converged network switch to operate on a network and fabric. Provided are steps to assign an IP address for the Ethnert Management Network, and how to change the module’s Fiber Channel operating mode.

Although the converged network switch is configured at the factory for NPIV mode, NPIV mode can be disabled to use full fabric mode as needed. Refer to procedures under the section titled “Changing from NPIV aggregator mode to full

fabric mode” on page 13.

This publication provides procedures that use the Chassis Management Controller (CMC) browser-based GUI application and the switch Command Line Interface (CLI) to configure the switch module. Other methods exist for managing I/O modules and can also be used.

Items required

The following items are required for configuring and connecting the converged network switch for use in a network and fabric:

•

The converged network switch installed in a blade server enclosure.

•

A management workstation (computer) that has a terminal emulator (such as HyperTerminal) connected to the Chassis Management Controller (CMC) GUI or CLI via Ethernet or Seial port, or connected to the CMC or converged network switch CLI through the keyboard, video, and mouse (KVM) device of the blade server enclosure.

•

An unused IP address and corresponding subnet mask and gateway address unless DHCP is used.

•

If required, a serial cable to connect to the switch module serial console port. Note that this is not required if changing the converged network switch IP address through the Chassis Management Controller (CMC) or KVM of the blade server enclosure using the CMC GUI or CLI.

•

SFP transceivers and compatible fibre cables, as required. The switch module can also use active twin-ax copper cables on the 10G Enhanced Ethernet ports.

Use only Dell-approved SFPs or active twin-ax copper cables on the external ports of this module.

Modify the converged network switch Ethernet management IP address

By default, the Ethernet management IP address for the converged network switch is configured as 10.77.77.77 with a default Ethernet subnet mask of 255.255.255.0. The default gateway is 0.0.0.0.

Reset the IP address using one of the available methods, which store the IP address values on the switch module:

•

Blade server enclosure CMC graphical user interface (GUI).

•

Blade server enclosure CMC CLI.

•

Dell M8428-k command line interface (CLI).

After modifying the switch module’s IP address and domain name (if the switch module is in full fabric mode), we recommend that you cable all external ports to fabric connections before bringing the switch module online.

It is recommended that you set the IP address using the blade server enclosure CMC GUI application because this enables centralized management of the converged network switch.

Using the CMC GUI to set the IP address

Browse to the Chassis Management Controller (CMSC) IP address and login.

To change the IP address, use the following steps:

Dell M8428-k Getting Started Guide 7 of 192 MHWKY A01

1. Click the I/O Module Overview in the navigation panel of the CMC menu.

3. Enter the new information in the IP Address for the correct I/O slot, Subnet Mask, and Gateway fields, or enable DHCP, as appropriate and click Apply.

In order to see the applied settings click the “Refresh” icon.

TRefer to the documentation for the Dell Chassis Management Controller (CMC) for additional GUI detail.

Using the CMC CLI to set the IP address

Use the following steps to connect and modify the converged network switch IP address through the CMC CLI.

1. Establish a Telnet session to the CMC CLI.

•

At the CMC login prompt, enter the CMC username and password.

2. At the command prompt, type the setniccfg command with the correct IP information as shown in the following example:

•

$ racadm setniccfg -m switch-x -s 10.32.53.47 255.255.240.0 10.32.48.1

Static IP address modified succesfully

3. Substitute the correct value for switch-x where x is the bay where the switch module is installed. For example, switch-x can be:

MHWKY A01

•

NOTE

switch-1 for switch module installed in bay A1.

•

switch-2 for switch module installed in bay A2.

•

switch-3 for switch module installed in bay B1.

•

switch-4 for switch module installed in bay B2.

•

switch-5 for switch module installed in bay C1.

•

switch-6 for switch module installed in bay C2.

4. Enter racadm getniccfg -m switch-x at the prompt to verify that the address was correctly set.

Refer to the documentation for the Dell Chassis Management Controller (CMC) for additional racadm command details.

Using the Dell M8428-k CLI to set the IP address

To set the IP address of the switch module using the switch CLI via Serial port (rather than through the CMC), refer to the Dell M8428-k Hardware Reference Manual under the section with this same section name.

Connecting to the converged network switch management interface

After succesfully setting the IP address of the switch module, a terminal emulator (Telnet, SSH) CLI connection can be established to the converged switch module, from a remote management workstation, through the Chassis Management Controller (CMC) Ethernet port. The management interface can be used for any additional configuration of the switch module.

The default switch module login/password the Admin account is: admin/password

Dell M8428-k Getting Started Guide 9 of 192 MHWKY A01

The diagram below shows the separation spaces for common FOS commands and CEE commands which are navigated using the CLI mode commands (cmsh, enable, configure, and interface). Within the CEE CLI use "?" for help with commands and tab for auto complete. Within the FOS CLI use help for command syntax.

FIGURE 5

Converged switch module CLI mode hierarchy for FOS and CEE commands

Additionally, a browser based GUI connection to the switch module is available (WebTools - requires JRE) which can be used for the common commands needed to configure the switch module. See the Fabric OS Administrators Guide for details on GUI interface use.

Configuring internal ports for FCoE

The internal midplane ports of the converged switch module need to be configured for use with the Converged Network Adapter (CNA), in the blade servers, in order for FCoE connectivity to occur.

Once you have logged into the switch, use the cmsh command to access the CEE command shell. Use the following steps to configure the CEE ports.

1. Login to the switch. with the Admin account. Default Admin password = password.

2. Enter the following command:

10 of 192 Dell M8428-k Getting Started Guide

MHWKY A01

M8428-k:Admin> cmsh

NOTE

M8428-k#

3. Once in the command shell, enter the following command:

enable

4. Then Enter the following command to enter configure mode:

configure terminal

5. Enter the following commands:

interface intengigabitethernet 0/x

, where x is the internal port you wish to change, which is the Slot

position of the server blade with the Converged Network Adapter being connected to.

The internal ports are numbered 1 through 16 corresponding to the server blade slot positions. The external ports would be configured with the command interface exttengigabitethernet 0/x, but the external ports would only be set to FCoE mode when connected to an external Host Server with a CNA. The external ports should not be connected to another FCoE Switch.

6. Once in the interface for the port, enter the following commands in the order shown:

fcoeport exit

The interface command fcoeport applies the following to the interface to enable FCoE traffic: The corresponding FCoE VLAN is applied to the interface (VLAN 1002) The corresponding CEE map is applied to the interface (“default”) The FCoE/FIP VLAN classifiers are applied to the interface See the Dell Converged Enhanced Ethernet administrators guide for more details of this command.

7. Repeat steps 5-6 for any other ports for additional server blade slots you wish to configure. Additionally as

needed, configure the internal ports for converged mode with a VLAN for untagged frames for non FC traffic, and configure FC trunks or LACP LAG’s on external ports.

To view the CEE port configuration type: do show running-config To view FCoE device connectivity type: do fos switchshow and do fos fcoe --loginshow

8. Once finished with all of the blade ports, type exit and press Enter (you should still be in the CMSH at this point).

9. Enter the following command to save the running config as the startup config:

write memory

Answer yes to overwrite the startup file.

See the Converged Enhanced Ethernet Administrator’s Guide for information about CEE CLI interface and configuring switches for FCoE operation and the Converged Enhanced Ethernet Command Reference for more details on the commands.

Dell M8428-k Getting Started Guide 11 of 192 MHWKY A01

Connecting the converged network switch to the fabric

NOTE

ATTENTION

NOTE

1. The switch module is delivered with FC 8G SFP transceivers installed in the four fibre channel ports.

2. If you need to connect the Ethernet ports, install 10GE SFP+ transceivers or twin-ax cables in the external ports as required. Be sure you have all the necessary SFP transceivers as well as either optical or active twin-ax copper cables.

a. If necessary, remove the end caps from the SFP.

b. Orient the transceiver correctly and insert it into a port until it is firmly seated and the latching mechanism

clicks.

For instructions specific to the type of transceiver, refer to the transceiver manufacturer’s documentation.

c. Repeat substeps a, b, and c for the remaining ports, as required.

Use only Dell-approved SFPs or active twin-ax copper cables in the appropriate external optical ports of this module. The FC 8G SFP transceivers included in the 4 Fibre Channel ports (25, 26, 27, and 0) of the switch module are not compatible with the Ethernet ports (17 through 24). The Ethernet ports should be populated with Dell-Approved 10GE SFP+ transceivers, or active twin-ax copper cables (not included).

A cable should not be bent to a radius less than 5.08 cm (2 inches) under full tensile load and 3.048 cm (1.2 inches) with no tensile load. Tie wraps are not recommended for optical cables because they are easily over tightened.

d. Orient a cable connector so that the key (the ridge on one side of connector) aligns with the slot in the

transceiver

e. Insert the cable into the transceiver until the latching mechanism clicks. For instructions specific to cable

type, refer to the cable manufacturer's documentation.

f. Repeat for the remaining transceivers as required.

3. Connect the cables to the transceivers.

The transceivers are keyed to ensure correct orientation. If a transceiver does not install easily, ensure that it is correctly oriented and that the end caps have been removed.

4. Check the LEDs to verify that all components are functional.

For information about LED patterns, see the “Operating the converged network switch” chapter in the Dell M8428-k Hardware Reference Manual.

Commands below are run from the FOS CLI, as needed exit the CEE CLI, or login to the Switch with a terminal emulator session and gain access the FOS prompt

5. Once the switch module FC port is connected to an FC SAN switch, the ports need to be enabled. From the switch module FOS CLI enter the following command for the ports being used (this can also be enabled from the switch GUI):

M8428-k:admin> portcfgpersistentenable <port#>, where the port# is 25, 26, 27 or 0.

M8428-k:Admin>

6. Verify the correct operation of the converged network switch by typing the switchShow command from the workstation. This command provides information about the switch module and port status.

12 of 192 Dell M8428-k Getting Started Guide

MHWKY A01

7. Verify the correct operation of the converged network switch in the fabric by typing the fabricShow command

NOTE

from the workstation.

8. Back up the switch module configuration to an FTP server by typing the configUpload command and following

the prompts.

These commands upload the converged network switch configuration to the server, making it available for downloading to a replacement converged network switch if necessary. Additionally the CEE configuration should be backed up on a regular basis to ensure that a complete configuration is available for downloading to a replacement switch module. See “Backing up the configuration” on page 15 for complete details.

Fibre Channel SwitchMode (NPIV aggregator vs. full fabric)

The following points summarize the differences between a Fabric OS switch functioning in Native Operating mode (full fabric mode) and a Fabric OS switch functioning in AG operating mode (NPIV aggregator):

•

The Fabric OS switch in Native mode is a part of the fabric; it requires two to four times as many physical ports, consumes fabric resources, and can connect to a Fabric OS fabric only.

•

A switch in AG mode is outside of the fabric; it reduces the number of switches in the fabric and the number of required physical ports. You can connect an AG switch to either a Fabric OS, M-EOS, or Cisco-based fabric.

Determine whether the Fibre Channel portion of the switch module is in NPIV or full fabric mode. This setting affects the configuration process for the FOS portion of the switch module.

In NPIV aggregator mode, only a limited subset of the fabric operating system commands are available and all fabric-related service requests are forwarded to the fabric switches.

When the switch mode is set to Access Gateway mode enabled, the F_Ports connect to the Enterprise fabric as N_Ports rather than as E_Ports. Therefore at least one of the external FC ports must be connected to an external FC switch fabric in order for the internal ports connected to Converged Network Adapter’s (CNA’s) to be able to login to the FCoE ports on the switch

Using the converged network switch CLI, verify the desired switch operating mode (The switch module is shipped with Access Gateway Mode enabled):

Log onto the switch module through an SSH or Telnet connection, using the admin account (default password: password).

You can enter the ag ––modeShow command to ensure that the module is in NPIV mode.

ag --modeShow

The factory default response will say:

Access Gateway mode is enabled.

module.

Changing from NPIV aggregator mode to full fabric mode

If your converged network switch is currently configured in NPIV mode (the factory default setting), you can enable the module for full fabric mode by disabling Access Gateway mode. When you do this, the module automatically reboots in full fabric mode.

Disabling NPIV mode is disruptive because the switch is disabled and rebooted. Always back up the current configuration before enabling or disabling NPIV mode. Enabling NPIV mode clears the security and zone databases. Disabling NPIV mode clears the F_Port to N_Port mapping.

Dell M8428-k Getting Started Guide 13 of 192 MHWKY A01

Changing to full fabric mode using the Command Line Interface

Complete the following steps to enable NPIV mode using the CLI (The switch GUI also provides a method to change NPIV mode in the advanced menu, see the Dell M8428-k hardware Reference Manual for details).

1. Log in using the default administrative account.

2. Enter the following command to disable the switch.

switchDisable

3. Back up the switch configurations. See “Backing up the configuration” on page 15 for specifics.

4. Enter the following command to enable full fabric mode:

ag ––modeDisable

The switch module automatically reboots and comes back online in full fabric mode. The NPIV parameters, such as port mapping and failover and failback, are automatically removed.

You can enter the ag ––modeShow command to ensure that the module is in NPIV mode.

ag ––modeShow

The response should be:

Access Gateway mode is NOT enabled.

Changing to NPIV mode using the Command Line Interface

If your converged network switch is currently configured in full fabric mode you canenable NPIV mode using the following instructions (The switch GUI also provides a method to change NPIV mode in the advanced menu, see the Dell M8428-k Hardware Reference Manual for details):

1. Log in using the default administrative account.

2. Enter the following command to disable full fabric mode.

switchDisable

3. Back up the switch configurations. See “Backing up the configuration” on page 15 for specifics.

4. Enter the following command to enable NPIV mode:

ag ––modeEnable

The switch module automatically reboots and comes back online in NPIV mode using a factory default F_Port to N_Port mapping.

5. You can enter the ag ––modeShow command to ensure that the module is in NPIV mode.

ag --modeShow

The response should be:

Access Gateway mode is enabled.

14 of 192 Dell M8428-k Getting Started Guide

MHWKY A01

You can also enter the ag ––mapshow command to display the F_Port to N_Port mapping. Enter ag ––help command to display a list of all NPIV actions.

Verify FCOE connectivity in NPIV aggregator mode

When the switch mode is set to Access Gateway mode enabled, the F_Ports connect to the Enterprise fabric as N_Ports rather than as E_Ports. Therefore at least one of the external FC ports must be connected to an external FC switch fabric in order for the internal ports connected to Converged Network Adapter's (CNA's) to be able to login to the FCoE ports on the switch module.

The connectivity of the switch module with the CNA's can be verified using the FOS commands switchshow and fcoe

--loginshow. The internal ports should show "online" State, with connectivity of internal FCoE VF-ports to the CNA VN-ports shown by the session MAC address. See "AccessGateway_AG_v630" admin guide for details on the NPIV aggregator mode.

Once the switch module FC port is connected to an FC SAN switch, the ports may need to be enabled. From the switch module FOS CLI enter the following command for the ports being used (this can also be enabled from the switch GUI):

M8428-k:admin> portcfgpersistentenable <port#>, where the port# is 25, 26, 27 or 0.

Backing up the configuration

Perform these steps to back up the switch module configuration to an FTP server.

1. Open a Telnet or SSH session to the switch module.

2. Enter the following command to upload the basic configuration of the switch module:

configUpload

You are then presented with a series of prompts.

3. Follow the prompts to upload the configuration.

4. When the upload completes, enter the following command to access the CEE CLI:

cmsh

5. Enter the following command to upload the current CEE configuration:

copy running-config ftp://[username@server/path]

You are then prompted for a password. When you enter the ftp password, the copy procedure begins.

These commands upload the switch module configurations to the server, making it available for downloading to a replacement switch module if necessary. Dell recommends backing up the configuration on a regular basis to ensure that a complete configuration is available for downloading to a replacement switch module.

修改汇聚网络交换机以太网管理 IP 地址

默认情况下，汇聚网络交换机的以太网管理 IP 地址配置为 10.77.77.77，默认以太网子网掩码为

255.255.255.0。默认网关为 0.0.0.0。使用一种可用的方法重置 IP 地址，这会将 IP 地址值存储在交换机模块上：

•

刀片服务器机柜 CMC 图形用户界面 (GUI)。

•

刀片服务器机柜 CMC CLI。

•

Dell M8428-k 命令行界面 (CLI)。

修改交换机模块的 IP 地址和域名（如果交换机模块处于完全组构模式）之后，我们建议您在将交换机模块联机之前，对所有外部端口布线至组构连接。

推荐使用刀片服务器机柜 CMC GUI 应用程序来设置 IP 地址，因为这可以对汇聚网络交换机启用集中化管理。

静态 IP 地址已成功修改。

3. 将 switch-x 替换成正确值，其中 x 是安装交换机模块的托架。例如， switch-x 可以是：

•

switch-1，代表交换机模块安装在托架 A1 中。

•

switch-2，代表交换机模块安装在托架 A2 中。

•

switch-3，代表交换机模块安装在托架 B1 中。

•

switch-4，代表交换机模块安装在托架 B2 中。

•

switch-5，代表交换机模块安装在托架 C1 中。

•

switch-6，代表交换机模块安装在托架 C2 中。

4. 在提示符下输入 racadm getniccfg -m switch-x，以验证地址设置正确。

请参阅 Dell 机箱管理控制器 (CMC) 说明文件以了解更多 racadm 命令的详细信息。

利用 Dell M8428-k CLI 设置 IP 地址

光纤信道交换机模式（NPIV 聚合器与完全组构的比较）

注

以下两点总结了 Fabric OS 交换机在本机操作模式（完全组构模式）中操作与在 AG 操作模式（NPIV 聚合器）中操作的区别：

•

本机模式中的 Fabric OS 交换机是组构的一部分；它需要两至四倍的物理端口，占用组构资源，并且只可连接至 Fabric OS 组构。

•

AG 模式中的交换机不在组构内，它减少组构中的交换机数量和所需的物理端口数量。您可以将 AG 交换机连接到 Fabric OS、 M-EOS 或基于 Cisco 的组构。

确定交换机模块的光纤信道部分是处于 NPIV 模式还是完全组构模式。此设置影响交换机模块的 FOS 部分的配置过程。

在 NPIV 聚合器模式中，仅组构操作系统命令的一个有限子集可用，并且所有与组构相关的服务请求都将转发至组构交换机。

将交换机模式设为已启用 Access Gateway 模式时， F_Ports 作为 N_Ports 而不是 E_Ports 连接到企业组构。因此，至少一个外部 FC 端口必须连接到外部 FC 交换机组构，这样才可让连接到汇聚网络适配器 (CNA) 的内部端口能够登录到交换机块上的 FCoE 端口。

使用汇聚网络交换机 CLI 验证希望的交换机操作模式（交换机模块在出厂时已启用 Access Gateway 模式）：使用 Admin （管理员）帐户（默认密码：password），并通过 SSH 或 Telnet 连接登录到交换机模块。您可以输入 ag ––modeShow 命令以确保模块处于 NPIV 模式中。

ag --modeShow

出厂默认的响应将表示：

Access Gateway mode is enabled.

（Access Gateway 模式已启用）。

从 NPIV 聚合器模式更改至完全组构模式

如果您的汇聚网络交换机当前配置为 NPIV 模式（出厂默认设置），您可以通过禁用 Access Gateway 模式以启用该模块来采用完全组构模式。当您执行此操作时，模块会自动以完全组构模式重新引导。

禁用 NPIV 模式是破坏性的，因为交换机会被禁用并重新引导。在启用或禁用 NPIV 模式之前，请始终备份当前配置。启用 NPIV 模式会清除安全和区域数据库。禁用 NPIV 模式会清除 F_Port 至 N_Port 的映射。

利用命令行界面更改为完全组构模式

完成以下步骤以使用 CLI 启用 NPIV 模式（交换机 GUI 还提供在高级菜单中更改 NPIV 模式的方法，请参阅

《Dell M8428-k 硬件参考手册》以了解详细信息）。

1. 利用默认的管理员帐户登录。

Password （密码）：password

2. 输入以下命令以禁用交换机。

switchDisable

3. 备份交换机配置。有关具体步骤，请参阅第 31 页上的 “ 备份配置 ”。

Dell M8428-k 使用入门指南 29/192 MHWKY A01

4. 输入以下命令以启用完全组构模式：

ag ––modeDisable

交换机模块会自动以完全组构模式重新引导并恢复联机。 NPIV 参数（例如端口映射、故障转移和故障恢复）会被自动移除。

您可以输入 ag ––modeShow 命令以确保模块处于 NPIV 模式。

ag ––modeShow

响应应为：

Access Gateway mode is NOT enabled. （Access Gateway 模式未启用。）

利用命令行界面更改为 NPIV 模式

如果汇聚网络交换机当前已配置成完全组构模式，则可根据以下说明启用 NPIV 模式（交换机 GUI 还提供在高级菜单中更改 NPIV 模式的方法，请参阅《Dell M8428-k 硬件参考手册》以了解详细信息）：

1. 利用默认的管理员帐户登录。

2. 输入以下命令以禁用完全组构模式。

switchDisable

3. 备份交换机配置。有关具体步骤，请参阅第 31 页上的 “ 备份配置 ”。

4. 输入以下命令以启用 NPIV 模式：

ag ––modeEnable

交换机模块利用出厂默认的 F_Port 至 N_Port 的映射，以 NPIV 模式自动重新引导并恢复联机。

5. 您可以输入 ag ––modeShow 命令以确保模块处于 NPIV 模式。

ag --modeShow

响应应为：

Access Gateway mode is enabled. （Access Gateway 模式已启用）。

您也可以输入 ag ––mapshow 命令以显示 F_Port 至 N_Port 的映射。输入 ag ––help 命令可显示所有 NPIV 操作的列表。

验证 NPIV 聚合器模式中 FCOE 的连通

将交换机模式设为已启用 Access Gateway 模式时， F_Ports 作为 N_Ports 而不是 E_Ports 连接到企业组构。因此，至少一个外部 FC 端口必须连接到外部 FC 交换机组构，这样才可让连接到汇聚网络适配器 (CNA) 的内部端口能够登录到交换机模块上的 FCoE 端口。

交换机模块与 CNA 的连通可以利用 FOS 命令 switchshow 和 fcoe --loginshow 来验证。内部端口应显示 “联机”状态，内部 FCoE VF 端口与 CNA VN 端口的连接情况通过会话 MAC 地址显示。请参阅

《AccessGateway_AG_v630 管理员指南》以了解有关 NPIV 聚合器模式的详细信息。
