Verifying the port-profile state
For the correct functioning of AMPP, the port-profile must be active and must be associated with the
correct MAC address.
1. Enter the show port-profile status command to verify that the port-profile is activated and is
associated with the correct MAC address.
switch# show port-profile status
Port-Profile PPID Activated Associated MAC Interface
pp1 1 No None None
pp2 2 No None None
2. Correct any misconfigurations as follows:
• If the port-profile is not activated, enter the port-profile profile-name activate command to
activate it.
• If the port-profile is not associated with a MAC address, enter the port-profile port-profile-name
static command to perform the association.
switch(config)# port-profile PP3 static 0050.5600.10030
• If the port-profile is associated with the wrong MAC address, enter the no port-profile port-profile-
name static command to break the association with the incorrect MAC address, and then
reassociate the port with the correct MAC address.
switch(config)# no port-profile PP3 static 0050.5600.10020
switch(config)# port-profile PP3 static 0050.5600.10030
Refer to Configuring a new port-profile on page 331 for details about activating a port-profile and
associating a port-profile with a MAC address.
Verifying the VM kernel MAC addresses
Confirm that the virtual machine (VM) kernel MAC addresses are also associated with the port-profile
on the respective switches. If not, perform the association as described in
Verifying the port-profile
configuration on page 678.
Verifying a shared storage device
Confirm that the VM and its associated hosts are sharing a storage device. If not, then reconfigure the
VM and hosts to share a storage device.
Verifying the status of a learned profiled MAC address
For correct functioning of AMPP, the MAC address must be learned from a valid source— a profiled
VLAN. This procedure determines whether a MAC address was learned from a valid source.
Enter the show mac-address-table port-profile command to check the status on learned profiled MAC
addresses.
switch# show mac-address-table port-profile
