Configuring Network Control Policies

Network Control Policy

Thispolicy configures the network control settings for the Cisco UCS domain, including the following:
• Whether the Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP) is enabled or disabled
• How the VIF behaves if no uplink port is available in end-host mode
• The action that Cisco UCS Manager takes on the remote Ethernet interface, vEthernet interface , or
vFibreChannelinterface when the associatedborder port fails
• Whether the server can use different MAC addresses when sending packets to the fabric interconnect
• Whether MAC registration occurs on a per-VNIC basis or for all VLANs.
Action on Uplink Fail
Bydefault, the Actionon Uplink Fail property inthe network controlpolicy is configured with a valueof
link-down.For adapters such as the Cisco UCS M81KR Virtual Interface Card, this default behavior directs
CiscoUCS Manager to bring the vEthernet or vFibreChannel interface down if the associated border port
fails.For Cisco UCS systems using a non-VM-FEX capable converged network adapter that supports both
Ethernetand FCoE traffic, such as Cisco UCS CNA M72KR-Q and the Cisco UCS CNA M72KR-E, this
defaultbehavior directs Cisco UCS Manager to bring the remote Ethernet interface down if the associated
borderport fails. In this scenario, any vFibreChannel interfaces that are bound to the remote Ethernet interface
arebrought down aswell.
