VLAN Setup

This section describes the necessary procedures to configure an IB host to communicate with an Ethernet host(s), both hosts using VLAN tags.

Host Interface Configuration

1.On a Linux Host, use the vconfig command to assign the interface in the ics_inic.cfg file to VLAN 11 (using the example in figure 4-30). Assume that the ics_inic file contains the line:

{CREATE; NAME="eioc2";

PRIMARY={IOCGUID=0x66a02e1000110; INSTANCE=1; PORT=1; }

}

and ics_inic has been started (/etc/init.d/ics_inic start).

2. Using the vconfig command, create an interface in VLAN 11:

vconfig add eioc2 11

This creates an interface named eioc2.11 that sends/receives packets with a VLAN tag of 11.

Make certain there is an

/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eioc2.11 file, as well as

the file /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eioc2 (on some kernels the name of the directory will be /etc/sysconfig/network instead of /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts). For the remainder of this section, assume that the IP address of eioc2.11 is 172.26.48.25.
