Cisco 6509 configuration

Overview

The nine-slot Cisco Catalyst 6509-E switch provides high port densities that are ideal

for many wiring closet, distribution, and core network deployments as well as data

center deployments.

Cabling

In this solution, the ESX server and VNX Data Mover cabling are evenly spread

across two WS-x6748 1 Gb line cards to provide redundancy and load balancing of

the network traffic.

Server uplinks

The server uplinks to the switch are configured in a port channel group to increase

the utilization of server network resources and to provide redundancy. The

vSwitches are configured to load balance the network traffic on the originating port

ID.

The following is an example of the configuration for one of the server ports:

description 8/10 9048-43 rtpsol189-1

switchport

switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q

switchport trunk allowed vlan 274,516-527

switchport mode trunk

no ip address

spanning-tree portfast trunk

Data Movers

The network ports for each VNX5300 Data Mover are connected to the 6509-E

switch. The server_2 ports cge-2-0 and cge-2-1 are configured with LACP, which

provides redundancy in case of a NIC or port failure.

The following is an example of the switch configuration for one of the Data Mover

ports:

description 7/4 9047-4 rtpsol22-dm2.0

switchport

switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q

switchport trunk allowed vlan 274,516-527

switchport mode trunk

mtu 9216

no ip address
