Allocating Shared Interfaces
Purpose
Enters configuration mode.
Enters interface configuration mode for the interface in
the Ethernet VDC.
Puts the Ethernet interface into trunk mode.
Sets the interface to STP-type edge port to support STP
Lite for loop prevention.
Administratively enables the Ethernet shared interface.
Enters VDC configuration mode.
Allocates interfaces that are shared with another VDC
for FCoE traffic. You must allocate the shared interfaces
to one of the VDC included in the FCoE VLAN
allocation. You can only use the shutdown or the
switchport trunk allowed vlan commands on shared
interfaces in the storage VDC.
(Optional)
Displays the interfaces that are shared for FCoE.
(Optional)
Switches to the storage VDC.
