Etherchannel trunking and VLAN tagging with Cisco and NetApp



Purpose: To create a redundant networking setup between a NetApp FAS270 and a Cisco switch

This example uses 2 vlans – 10 and 50

On the Cisco switch:
conf t
interface ga 0/1
switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
switchport mode trunk
channel-group 1 mode on
end
wr mem

On the NetApp:
vif create multi vif0 e0a e0b
vlan create -g on vif0 10
vlan add vif0 50
ifconfig vif0-10 [ip address] netmask [subnet mask]
ifconfig vif0-50 [ip address] netmask [subnet mask]
