Page 4: Configuring Evb
Configuring EVB Edge Virtual Bridging (EVB) allows virtual machines (VMs) on a physical server to obtain bridge relay services through a common bridge port. It enables coordinated configuration and management of bridge services for VMs. Overview Data center virtualization includes network virtualization, storage virtualization, and server virtualization. Server virtualization uses specific virtualization software such as VMware to create VMs on a single physical server. -
Page 5: Basic Concepts
Basic concepts Figure 2 shows the components on the EVB station and EVB bridge. Figure 2 EVB architecture Edge Relay (ER)—Transfers packets between one URP and one or more DRPs. An ER has one or • more DRPs and one URP. Both URP and DRPs are called ER ports. An EVB station can have multiple ERs. -
Page 6: Protocols And Standards
When a station creates a VM, it sends a VDP pre-associate, pre-associate with resource reservation, or associate packet to the bridge. The bridge sends the request to a VSI manager. The VSI manager notifies the bridge to create a VSI and apply policies. When a station shuts down a VM, it sends a VDP de-associate packet to the bridge. -

Page 9: Configuring A Description For An S-Channel Interface
If an (SCID, SVID) pair for an S-channel is created both automatically and manually, the one automatically created takes precedence. A manually created S-channel has an access link type, and an automatically created S-channel has a trunk link type. The device checks C-VLAN tagged frames (frames taking the original VLAN tags) entering an S-channel for their C-VLAN tags. -

Configuring MAC address learning for an S-channel You can manually disable the MAC address learning function for an S-channel by performing this task. -

Configuring VSI filters A VSI filter contains a set of VID values (VLAN information) or a set of MAC and VID values (<MAC, VLAN>). -
Page 12: Activating A Vsi
Activating a VSI Configurations such as traffic policing for a VSI (see ACL and QoS Configuration Guide) take effect only after the VSI is activated. When a VSI is not activated, do not make any configuration except for VSI filter configuration for the VSI. -

Figure 3 Network diagram Configuration procedure This section only contains EVB configurations. Configure the EVB bridge: # Create VLAN 100 on EVB bridge 1. <EVB_bridge1> system-view [EVB_bridge1] vlan 100 [EVB_bridge1-vlan100] quit # Enable EVB on Ten-GigabitEthernet 1/0/1 that connects to EVB station 1, and configure Ten-GigabitEthernet 1/0/1 to operate in trunk mode. - Page 14 Configure the NMS: Use VAN Connection Manager of IMC on the NMS to configure network resources. The IMC VCM 5.2 (E0401L01) version is used in this section. Figure 4 VAN Connection Manager To configure the NMS, log in to IMC, click the Resource tab, and select VAN Connection Manager from the navigation tree (see Figure 4), and perform the following steps:...

The network name For FTP is displayed in the Network List page, as shown in Figure Figure 6 Network List page Define the VSI type of VM 1:...
- Page 16 Figure 8 Connection List page Verify the configuration: After VM 1 starts, the VAN Connection Manager service component of IMC deploys the VSI type VM1 VSI on EVB bridge 1. Only the R&D center can use the FTP service on VM 1.
