• The port-profile is not activated or is not associated with the correct MAC address. Refer to

Verifying the port-profile state

on page 679.

• The VM kernel MAC addresses are not associated correctly with the port-profile on the respective

switches. Refer to

Verifying the VM kernel MAC addresses

on page 679.

The VM and its associated hosts do not share a common storage device. Refer to

Verifying a

shared storage device

on page 679.

• The port-profile was learned on a nonprofiled VLAN. Refer to

Verifying the status of a learned

profiled MAC address

on page 679.

• A conflicting port-profile is applied to the same interface. Refer to

Verifying that port profiles do not

conflict

on page 680.

• The Ethernet Name Server is not functioning correctly. Refer to

Verifying the Ethernet Name Server

on page 680.

• An ESX host has an incompatible network adapter or driver installed. Refer to

Verifying an ESX

host

on page 680.

Verifying the port-profile configuration

A valid port-profile must exist on the target switch. It must contain a basic switchport and VLAN
configuration.

1. In the privileged EXEC mode, enter the show running-config port-profile command to verify that

the port-profile configuration exists on the target switch, and that it contains a basic switchport and
VLAN configuration.

switch# show running-config port-profile

port-profile default

vlan-profile

switchport

switchport mode trunk

switchport trunk allowed vlan all

switchport trunk native-vlan 1

!

!

port-profile pp1

vlan-profile

!

!

port-profile pp2

vlan-profile

!

!

2. If the port-profile configuration does not exist or is missing the required switchport or VLAN

configuration, create the port-profile as described in

AMPP port-profiles

on page 329.

Verifying the VM MAC address

For the correct functioning of AMPP, the MAC address for the VM and its associated hosts must
appear in the MAC address table.

1. Enter the show mac-address-table command to verify that the VM MAC addresses appear in the

switch MAC address table.

switch# show mac-address-table

VlanId Mac-address Type State Ports

1 0000.0010.0001 Static Inactive Te 4/0/3

1 0000.0010.0002 Static Inactive Te 4/0/3

Total MAC addresses : 2

2. If a VM MAC address is not present, contact your switch support provider for further investigation

and provide this data.
