Configuring a switch in fabric cluster mode

Refer also to

Fabric cluster mode

on page 57. When you issue the show vcs command to display the

VCS configuration for the chassis, the command output shows a single-node VCS with a VCS ID of 1
and an RBridge ID of 1. Use the vcs command to change the default values.

switch0# show vcs

Config Mode : Local-Only

VCS ID : 1

Total Number of Nodes : 1

Configuring a switch in standalone mode

When you display the VCS configuration for a compact switch in default mode, it shows that VCS
mode is disabled. Always confirm the status of a switch before making configuration changes.

switch# show vcs

state: Disabled

Refer also to

Standalone mode

on page 58.

Displaying switch interfaces

Interfaces on the VDX 8770 platform are identified by the RBridge ID, slot number, and port number,
separated by forward slashes (/). For example, the notation 9/2/8 indicates port 8 located in slot 2 on a
chassis with the RBridge ID of 9.

Enter the show running-config interface interface_type command to display the interfaces and their
status.

switch# show running-config interface tengigabitethernet
