Step Command Remarks
2. Enter S-channel interface
view or S-channel aggregate
interface view.
interface { s-channel |
schannel-aggregation }
interface-number:channel-id
N/A
3. Create a VSI interface or VSI
aggregate interface. evb vsi vsi-local-id { association |
pre-association }
By default, no VSI interface or VSI
aggregate interface exists on an
S-channel.
Configuring VSI filters
The EVB bridge uses a VSI filter to identify VSI traffic for a VM. Filters are usually assigned by a VSI
manager. You can manually create or remove VSI filters through this task.
A VSI filter contains a set of VID values, MAC addresses, and group ID values. EVB supports the
following filter info formats:
• VLAN ID
• VLAN ID + MAC
• Group ID + VLAN ID
• Group ID + VLAN ID + MAC
When you configure VSI filters on a VSI interface, follow these guidelines:
• Before you configure a VSI filter on a VSI interface, make sure the S-channel interface to which the
VSI interface belongs operates in trunk mode. Otherwise, the VSI filter configuration fails.
• After you configure a VSI filter on a VSI interface, an S-channel interface automatically permits the
VLAN that is configured in the VSI filter for the subordinate VSI interface. The same rule takes effect
on Layer 2 interfaces associated with S-channels.
• When you delete a VSI filter that contains information about a VLAN on a VSI interface, the other
VSI filters on all VSI interfaces of an S-channel interface might not contain the VLAN. If they do not,
the S-channel interface automatically denies traffic from the VLAN that is configured on the VSI filter.
The same rule takes effect on Layer 2 interfaces associated with S-channels.
• When a filter configured on a VSI contains information about a VLAN, you must not configure the
filter on the same VSI interface again or on other VSI interfaces of the S-channel interface. If you do,
an error message appears.
• If the VSI filter is a set of VID values, and the MAC address learning function for the corresponding
S-channel is disabled, traffic for the VSI cannot be forwarded.
• Activate a VSI interface after configuring a VSI filter, and deactivate a VSI interface before removing
a VSI filter.
When you configure VSI filters on a VSI aggregate interface, follow these guidelines:
• Before you configure a VSI filter on a VSI aggregate interface, make sure the S-channel aggregate
interface to which the VSI aggregate interface belongs operates in trunk mode. Otherwise, the VSI
filter configuration fails.
• After you configure a VSI filter on a VSI aggregate interface, an S-channel aggregate interface
automatically permits the VLAN that is configured in the VSI filter for the subordinate VSI aggregate
interface. The same rule takes effect on Layer 2 aggregate interfaces associated with S-channels.
• When you delete a VSI filter that contains information about a VLAN on a VSI aggregate interface,
the other VSI filters on all VSI aggregate interfaces of an S-channel aggregate interface might not
