In my new position I am learning a lot about UCS. Today I had to create a port channel for both A and B fabrics and then assign a VLAN to both.
- Log into Cisco Manager.
- Click on the LAN tab and then Plus sign next to Fabric A.
- Right click Port-Channels and select Create Port Channel.
- Give the port channel an ID and a Name.
- Select which ports are going to be used in this port channel group. Make sure you hit the >> button to move them over to be in the port channel. Click Finish.
- Repeat steps 1-5 on Fabric B
- Click LAN in the left navigation window and then at the bottom click on LAN Uplinks Manager.
-
Click the VLAN tab and then click the VLAN Manager tab. In the left navigation pane you will select the port channel group that you created earlier. In my case I am using port channel 23. In the right window you select which vlans you want to check the box of the vlans you want to be a part of this port group. Click the Add to VLAN/VLAN Group box at the bottom of the screen.
That should be it. You have now created a port channel and assigned a VLAN to it!
