Define Shared Uplink Set Connection
To define multiple networks that share a common set of external uplink ports:
1. Enter an overall name for the set of shared uplinks (up to 64 characters, no spaces).
2. Set the connection mode to Auto or Failover.
3. If the connection mode is set to Auto, set the length of the LACP Timer.
4. From the Add Port list, select the external uplink ports that will carry these networks.
To delete a port, click the Delete link in the Action column of the row to delete.
5. Click Add to define an associated FCoE Network.
When associating an FCoE network, the shared uplink set must contain uplink ports from a single VC
module. In a multi-enclosure domain, the matching ports must be available in all enclosures in the
domain. For VC 4.10, only one FCoE network can be associated with a given shared uplink set. In VC
4.20 and later, up to 32 FCoE networks can be associated with a given shared uplink set.
a. Enter a network name.
b. Enter a VLAN identifier.
c. To add a color to the network, select a color from the Color pull-down menu. The network color is
used as visual identifier for the network within VCM.
