Once you have defined the port-based VLAN and created the virtual routing interface, you need to
configure the virtual routing interface just as you would configure a physical interface.
device-A(config-vlan-other-proto)# interface ve1
device-A(config-vif-1)# ip address 10.1.2.1/24
device-A(config-vif-1)# ip ospf area 0.0.0.0
Do the same thing for VLAN 8.
device-A(config-vif-1)# vlan 8 name IPX_Network2
device-A(config-vlan-8)# untagged ethernet 5 to 8
device-A(config-vlan-8)# no spanning-tree
device-A(config-vlan-8)# router-interface ve 2
device-A(config-vlan-8)# ipx-network 2 ethernet_802.3
device-A(config-vlan-8)# other-proto name block-other-protocols
device-A(config-vlan-other-proto)# no dynamic
device-A(config-vlan-other-proto)# exclude ethernet 5 to 8
device-A(config-vlan-other-proto)# interface ve2
device-A(config-vif-1)# ip address 10.1.2.2/24
device-A(config-vif-1)# ip ospf area 0.0.0.0
The next thing you need to do is create VLAN 3. This is very similar to the previous example with the
addition of virtual routing interfaces to the IP subnet and IPX network VLANs. Also there is no need to
exclude ports from the IP subnet and IPX network VLANs on the router.
device-A(config-vif-2)# vlan 3 name IP_Sub_&_IPX_Net_VLAN
device-A(config-vlan-3)# untagged ethernet 9 to 16
device-A(config-vlan-3)# no spanning-tree
device-A(config-vlan-3)# ip-subnet 10.1.1.0/24
device-A(config-vlan-ip-subnet)# static ethernet 9 to 12
device-A(config-vlan-ip-subnet)# router-interface ve3
device-A(config-vlan-ip-subnet)# ipx-network 1 ethernet_802.3
device-A(config-vlan-ipx-network)# static ethernet 13 to 16
device-A(config-vlan-ipx-network)# router-interface ve4
device-A(config-vlan-ipx-network)# other-proto name block-other-protocols
device-A(config-vlan-other-proto)# exclude ethernet 9 to 16
device-A(config-vlan-other-proto)# no dynamic
device-A(config-vlan-other-proto)# interface ve 3
device-A(config-vif-3)# ip addr 10.1.1.1/24
device-A(config-vif-3)# ip ospf area 0.0.0.0
Now configure VLAN 4. Remember this is a flat segment that, in the previous example, obtained its IP
default gateway and IPX router services from an external FSX. In this example, FSX-A will provide the
routing services for VLAN 4. You also want to configure the STP priority for VLAN 4 to make FSX-A the
root bridge for this VLAN.
device-A(config-vif-4)# vlan 4 name Bridged_ALL_Protocols
device-A(config-vlan-4)# untagged ethernet 17 to 24
device-A(config-vlan-4)# tagged ethernet 25 to 26
device-A(config-vlan-4)# spanning-tree
device-A(config-vlan-4)# spanning-tree priority 500
device-A(config-vlan-4)# ipx network 3 ethernet_802.3
device-A(config-vlan-ipx-network)# exit
device-A(config-vlan-4)# router-interface ve5
device-A(config-vlan-4)# interface ve5
device-A(config-vif-5)# ip address 10.1.3.1/24
device-A(config-vif-5)# ip ospf area 0.0.0.0
It is time to configure a separate port-based VLAN for each of the routed backbone ports (Ethernet 25
and 26). If you do not create a separate tagged port-based VLAN for each point-to-point backbone link,
you need to include tagged interfaces for Ethernet 25 and 26 within VLANs 2, 3, and 8. This type of
configuration makes the entire backbone a single STP domain for each VLAN 2, 3, and 8. This is the
configuration used in the example in
Configuring IP subnet, IPX network and protocol-based VLANs
page 376. In this scenario, the virtual routing interfaces within port-based VLANs 2, 3, and 8 will be
VLANs
