The explicit path must be created in the source switch. To configure an explicit path, you must first create
the path and then configure the use of any one path. If an explicit path is not configured, the minimum
cost path is used by default. If an explicit path is configured and is functioning, the specified path is used.
To create an explicit path for the scenario in

Figure 43-14, follow these steps:
Purpose
Enters configuration mode.
Places you at the explicit path prompt for the
path named Path 1.
Specifies that the next hop VSAN interface IP
addresses and the previous hops specified in the
explicit path do not require direct connection.
Places you at the explicit path prompt for
Path2.
Specifies that the next hop VSAN interface IP
addresses and the previous hops specified in the
explicit path does not require direct
connection.
Places you at the explicit path prompt for
Path3.
Configures a minimum cost path in which the
10.10.10.3 IP address exists.
In Figure
Note
Path1—10.10.10.3 exists in Path 1.
Using the loose option, you can achieve
the same effect with one command
instead of issuing three commands
(using the strict option) in Step 3.
