Ten network bonding modes are supported:
VLAN Commands
A VLAN, or virtual LAN, is a set of nodes that are grouped together into a single logical network,
regardless of their physical location. Multiple VLANs may share the same physical Ethernet links.
The VMA SAN Gateway uses a separate VLAN for low-latency, low-bandwidth communication
between the HP VMA SAN Gateways in a redundant gateway configuration. Using VLAN
commands, interfaces may be configured on a separate VLAN to allow for the segregation of
network and inter-gateway traffic.
Network switches must be configured to provide a VLAN for inter-gateway traffic in the system.
Each network switch port connected to a HP VMA SAN Gateway should be configured to allow
VLAN-tagged traffic for the given VLAN ID.
network vlan vlan-id <vlan-id> interface <ifname>
Creates a tagged VLAN interface with <vlan-id> as the specified VLAN ID atop the base
interface <ifname> . Valid VLAN ID values are between 1 and 4094.
A new interface is created, named vlan# where # is <vlan-id> . The new interface can then be
configured using the interface commands.
no network vlan vlan-id <vlan-id>
Removes the tagged VLAN interface <vlan-id> from its base interface.
show vlans [<vlan-id>] [configured]
Displays a list of the configured VLANs in the system, or information about a particular VLAN
interface if one is specified by <vlan-id> . If configured is specified, the configured base
interface and <vlan-id> for the VLAN interface are shown. Otherwise the current runtime state
of the VLAN interface is shown.
