Configuring Overlay VSANs

Detailed Steps

To configure an overlay VSAN, follow these steps:

  1. Add the VSAN to the VSAN database on all switches in the fabric.
  2. Create a VSAN interface for the VSAN on all switches in the fabric. Any VSAN interface belonging to the VSAN has an IP address in the same subnet. Create a route to the IPFC cloud on the IP side.
  3. Configure a default route on every switch in the Fibre Channel fabric pointing to the switch that provides NMS access.
  4. Configure the default gateway (route) and the IPv4 address on switches that point to the NMS
