PowerStore: Minimum Required Configuration for Using Cisco Nexus Switches with PowerStore T

IPv6 unicast routing should be enabled:

switch(config)# ipv6 unicast-routing

The VLAN that is used as the default VLAN for untagged traffic (native VLAN) must have IPv6 explicitly enabled:

switch(config)#interface vlan 3
switch(config-if)# ipv6 enable

Port Channels should be configured one for each node in Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) mode (active):

switch(config)# interface type slot
switch(config-if)# channel-group number mode active

Edge ports should be configured with portfast:

switch(config-if)# spanning-tree portfast trunk

Some models use the following instead of the above:

switch(config-if)# spanning-tree port type edge

The port channels must be configured with a default VLAN for untagged traffic (native VLAN). All VLAN including the native VLAN must be configured on the trunk:

switch(config)# interface port channel number
switch(config-if)# switchport trunk native vlan 3
switch(config-if)# switchport mode trunk
switch(config-if)# switchport trunk allowed vlan add 3,600,605,666,1112

For Cisco Nexus, it is required to configure the port channel as a spanning tree edge port also:

switch(config)# interface port channel number
switch(config-if)# spanning-tree portfast trunk

Untagged native VLANs should be enabled globally, this is the default setting:

no vlan dot1q tag native
