Configuring the VCS Fabric virtual IP address
A Virtual IP address is assigned for each VCS Fabric. This virtual IP address is tied to the principal
switch in the cluster. The management interface of the principal switch can be accessed using this
virtual IP address. Because the Virtual IP address is the property of the Fabric Cluster, in the event
that the principal switch goes down, the next principal switch is assigned this address.
To configure the Virtual IP address, perform the following steps.
1. Issue the <edit-config> RPC to configure the <vcs> node in the
urn:brocade.com:mgmt:brocade-vcs namespace.
2. Under the <vcs> node, include the <virtual>/<ip> hierarchy of network nodes.
3. Under the <ip> node, include the <address> leaf element and set its value to the desired
virtual IP address.
NOTE
The virtual IP address must be an IPv4 address.
