Deploying the Dell Force10 MXL into a Cisco Nexus Network Environment
MXL1(conf-if-te-1)#exit
MXL1(conf)#exit
MXL1#
For administrative convenience the above steps can be applied to a range of switch interfaces during
configuration. In the following example, the downlinks of MXL1 in the example network are all
configured as access ports with interfaces 1-8 on VLAN 11, interfaces 9-24 on VLAN 12, and interfaces
25-32 on VLAN 13.
Access Port CLI Example Using Interface Range
MXL1#configure
MXL1(conf)#interface range tengigabitethernet 0/1 - 32
MXL1(conf-if-range-te-0/1-32)#switchport
MXL1(conf-if-range-te-0/1-32)#spanning-tree pvst edge-port
MXL1(conf-if-range-te-0/1-32)#exit
MXL1(conf)#interface Vlan 11
MXL1(conf-if-vl-11)#untagged tengigabitethernet 0/1-8
MXL1(conf-if-vl-11)#no shutdown
MXL1(conf-if-vl-11)#exit
MXL1(conf)#interface Vlan 12
MXL1(conf-if-vl-12)#untagged tengigabitethernet 0/9-24
MXL1(conf-if-vl-12)#no shutdown
MXL1(conf-if-vl-12)#exit
MXL1(conf)#interface Vlan 13
MXL1(conf-if-vl-13)#untagged tengigabitethernet 0/25-32
MXL1(conf-if-vl-13)#no shutdown
MXL1(conf-if-vl-13)#exit
MXL1(conf)#interface range tengigabitethernet 0/1 - 32
MXL1(conf-if-range-te-0/1-32)#no shutdown
MXL1(conf-if-range-te-0/1-32)#exit
MXL1(conf)#exit
MXL1#
To see how the above commands affect the MXL's running configuration, review the example MXL1
running configuration in Appendix A.
