VLAN configuration and management
NOTE
To see the minimum configuration required to enable FCoE on Dell FCoE hardware, refer to Chapter
3, “Initial FCoE and CEE Configuration” .
NOTE
You need to enter either the copy running-config startup-config command or the write memory
command to save your configuration changes to Flash so that they are not lost if there is a system
reload or power outage.
Enabling and disabling an interface port
NOTE
CEE interfaces are disabled by default.
NOTE
CEE interfaces do not support auto-negotiation of Ethernet link speeds. The CEE interfaces only
support 10-Gigabit Ethernet.
To enable and disable an interface port, perform the following steps from Privileged EXEC mode.
1. Enter the configure terminal command to access global configuration mode.
2. Enter the interface command to specify the CEE interface type and slot/port number.
switch(config)#interface intengigabitethernet 0/1
3. Enter the shutdown command to toggle the availability of the interface.
To enable the CEE interface:
switch(conf-if-te-0/1)#no shutdown
To disable the CEE interface:
switch(conf-if-te-0/1)#shutdown
Configuring the MTU on an interface port
To configure the maximum transmission unit (MTU) on an interface port, perform the following
steps from Privileged EXEC mode.
1. Enter the configure terminal command to access global configuration mode.
2. Enter the interface command to specify the interface port type and slot/port number.
switch(config)#interface intengigabitethernet 0/1
3. Enter the no shutdown command to enable the interface port.
4. Enter the mtu command to specify the MTU value on the interface port.
The following example sets the MTU value to 4200.
switch(conf-if-te-0/1)#mtu 4200
