IP Storage Router SR2122-2 User Guide

Prerequisite Tasks

Before configuring for VLAN, make sure you have configured all system
parameters as described in

Chapter 5, “Configuring the Storage Router”

or

Chapter 6, “Configuring System Parameters”

VLAN Encapsulation

The storage router uses the IEEE 802.1Q standard for VLAN encapsulation.

Note:

If the storage router is connected to a switch, the switch port must be configured

as a trunk port and the encapsulation set to 802.1Q, not Inter-Switch Link (ISL), which is

the default setting for trunk ports.

Configuration Tasks

To configure for VLAN on the storage router:

1. Configure for VLAN using the VLAN Trunking Protocol (VTP) or Configure

for VLAN without using VTP.

2. Configure an IP route.

3. Verify and save configuration.

Note:

You can verify and save the configuration at any point in the process of

performing the configuration tasks. Save your configuration by using the
save all bootconfig

CLI command. This command saves all configuration data

to the bootable configuration, which is then used when the storage router is rebooted.

4. Proceed to

Chapter 8, “Configuring SCSI Routing”

to configure SCSI routing

and to assign a VLAN to a SCSI routing instance.
