1. Define the server ports.
2. Configure the external LAG to be used with vNIC group 2.
3. Enable the vNIC feature on the switch.
4. Configure the virtual pipes for the vNICs attached to each server port:
248
G8264CS Application Guide for ENOS 8.4
RS 8264CS(config)# system server-ports port 1-5
RS 8264CS(config)# portchannel 1 port 13,14
RS 8264CS(config)# portchannel 1 enable
RS 8264CS(config)# vnic enable
RS 8264CS(config)# vnic port 1 index 1 (Select vNIC 1 on the port)
RS 8264CS(vnic-config)# enable
RS 8264CS(vnic-config)# bandwidth 60
RS 8264CS(vnic-config)# exit
RS 8264CS(config)# vnic port 1 index 2 (Select vNIC 2 on the port)
RS 8264CS(vnic-config)# enable
RS 8264CS(vnic-config)# bandwidth 40
RS 8264CS(vnic-config)# exit
RS 8264CS(config)# vnic port 2 index 1 (Select vNIC 1 on the port)
RS 8264CS(vnic-config)# enable
RS 8264CS(vnic-config)# exit
RS 8264CS(config)# vnic port 2 index 2 (Select vNIC 2 on the port)
RS 8264CS(vnic-config)# enable
RS 8264CS(vnic-config)# exit
As a configuration shortcut, vNICs do not have to be explicitly enabled in this step.
When a vNIC is added to the vNIC group (in the next step), the switch will prompt
you to confirm automatically enabling the vNIC if it is not yet enabled (shown for
3.2).
Note: vNICs are not supported simultaneously on the same switch ports as
VMready.
