Page 4: Configuring Evb
Configuring EVB Overview 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. Data center virtualization includes network virtualization, storage virtualization, and server virtualization. -
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 shuts down a VM, it sends a VDP de-associate packet to the bridge. The bridge sends the request to the VSI manager. The VSI manager notifies the bridge to delete the VSI interface. Protocols and standards IEEE P802.1Qbg/D2.2, Draft Standard for Local and Metropolitan Area Networks—MAC Bridges and Virtual Bridged Local Area Networks—Amendment XX: Edge Virtual Bridging. -
Page 7: Evb Configuration Task List
After you enable EVB on a Layer 2 Ethernet interface or a Layer 2 aggregate interface in a VLAN, the interface does not support Layer 2 multicast services. After you add an interface to a multiport unicast MAC address entry, the interface cannot forward traffic received from interfaces enabled with EVB. -
Page 8: Configuring Lldp
Configuring LLDP EVB uses LLDP to transmit CDCP TLVs, and CDCP TLVs are carried by the LLDP packet that is addressed using the Nearest non-TPMR Bridge address, so you must configure LLDP. For detailed information about the lldp global enable, lldp enable and lldp agent nearest-nontpmr admin-status commands, see Layer 2—LAN Switching Command Reference. -
Page 9: Configuring An S-Channel
The value of the VDP resource wait-delay exponent is the larger of the values proposed by the station and bridge through EVB TLV. When a Pre-Associate, Pre-Associate with Resource Reservation, or Associate request from a station is successfully handled, the VSI manager notifies the bridge to create a VSI interface for the corresponding VM. -
Page 10: Configuring An S-Channel Interface Or S-Channel Aggregate Interface
To create an S-channel: Step Command Remarks Enter system view. system-view Enter Layer 2 Ethernet interface interface-type interface view or Layer 2 interface-number aggregate interface view. By default, only an automatically evb s-channel channel-id created default S-channel (with Create an S-channel. [ service-vlan svlan-id ] both SCID and SVID as 1) exists on an interface with EVB enabled. -
Page 11: Configuring The Rr Mode For An S-Channel
Configuring the RR mode for an S-channel EVB TLVs exchanged through LLDP allow an EVB station and EVB bridge to negotiate the use of reflective relay. If the EVB bridge supports the RR mode, when the EVB station requests the use of the RR mode, the bridge performs the following tasks: •... -
Page 12: Configuring A Vsi Interface Or Vsi Aggregate Interface
Configuring a VSI interface or VSI aggregate interface Creating a VSI interface or VSI aggregate interface IMPORTANT: When the total number of VSI interfaces and VSI aggregate interfaces on the device exceeds 512, make sure the VDP keepalive exponent is larger than the default value. Otherwise, some VSI interfaces or VSI aggregate interfaces might be automatically deleted. - Page 13 • When you delete a VSI filter that contains information about a VLAN on a VSI interface, the other VSI filters on all VSI interfaces of an S-channel interface might not contain the VLAN. If they do not, the S-channel interface automatically denies traffic from the VLAN that is configured on the VSI filter.

Page 14: Activating A Vsi Interface Or Vsi Aggregate Interface
Activating a VSI interface or VSI aggregate interface Configurations such as traffic monitoring (see ACL and QoS Configuration Guide) on a VSI interface or VSI aggregate interface take effect only after the VSI interface or VSI aggregate interface is activated. When a VSI interface or VSI aggregate interface is not activated, only configure filters on the VSI interface or VSI aggregate interface. -
