Workflow to create VLAN services (OmniSwitch)
Overview
The following workflow lists the high-level steps required to create a VLAN service on OmniSwitch devices. As a prerequisite for creating a VLAN service, this workflow assumes that the following appropriate preconfigurations have been performed:
-
discovery including mediation configuration with CLI usernames and passwords
-
addition of the OmniSwitches that participate in the VLAN to a VLAN group
-
configure OmniSwitch network ports, as required, from the navigation tree. The Automatic VLAN Binding parameter associated with a network port or LAG must be enabled before the NFM-P can identify the network port or LAG as a network interface. This parameter is only supported on Stacked VLANs.
Stages
1 | Provision a Standard VLAN service. See To create a standard VLAN service on OmniSwitch devices .
|
2 | Provision a L2 VPN VLAN service. See To create an OmniSwitch L2 VPN TLS VLAN service .
|
3 | Provision a BTV VLAN service. See To create an OmniSwitch BTV VLAN service .
|
4 | Provision a VIP VLAN service. See To create an OmniSwitch VIP VLAN service .
|
5 |
Provision a Backbone VLAN service. See To create an OmniSwitch Backbone VLAN service . |
6 |
As required:
|
7 |
Turn up the service. Network interface VLAN bindings are created between the newly-created VLAN and all of the network ports on the node. |
8 |
As required, run an OAM validation test on a VLAN service. See To run an OAM validation test on a VLAN service . |
9 |
