Virtual Services Platform 9000 configuration

This section describes how to configure the VSP 9000. To allow for full utilization of the network for SAN
storage, Coraid recommends isolating SAN storage networks from other network traffic.
Note – The specific VLANS and ports used in this test setup have no special significance. You
can use whatever VLANs and ports you want.

Configuring VLANs using the ACLI

Configure VLAN 100 and ensure that all ports connected to the Coraid HBAs and SRX-Series appliances
are in VLAN 100. The following steps show how to configure the VLAN using the ACLI:
1
Enter the Privilege Exec context:
VSP9000:1>enable
2
Enter the Global Configuration context:
VSP9000:1# configure terminal
3
Create the port based VLAN 100:
VSP9000:1(config)# vlan create 100 name SAN type port-mstprstp 1
4
Remove the ports from the default VLAN 1:
VSP9000:1(config)# vlan members remove 1 3/1-3/9,6/1-6/9
5
Add ports to the VLAN 100:
VSP9000:1(config)# vlan members add 100 3/1-3/9,6/1-6/9
