Apply Custom Switch Configuration CSM 1.2

Apply the backed up site connection configuration with a couple modifications. Since virtual routing and forwarding (VRF) is now used to separate customer traffic, the site ports and default routes must be added to that VRF.

Prerequisites

Aruba Apply Configurations

vrf attach Customer will be added to the port configuration that connects to the site. This has to be applied before the ip address configuration.

conf t
interface 1/1/36
    no shutdown
    vrf attach Customer
    description to:CANswitch_cfcanb6s1-31:from:sw-25g01_x3000u39-j36
    ip address 10.101.15.142/30
    exit

conf t
sw-spine-001(config)# system interface-group 3 speed 10g

conf t
interface 1/1/36
    no shutdown
    vrf attach Customer
    description to:CANswitch_cfcanb6s1-46:from:sw-25g02_x3000u40-j36
    ip address 10.101.15.190/30
    exit

If the switch had system interface-group commands those would be added here.

sw-spine-001(config)# system interface-group 3 speed 10g

vrf Customer will be appended to the default route configuration.

conf t
sw-spine-001(config)# ip route 0.0.0.0/0 10.101.15.141 vrf Customer

conf t
sw-spine-002(config)# ip route 0.0.0.0/0 10.101.15.189 vrf Customer

Mellanox Apply Configurations

vrf forwarding Customer will be added to the port configuration. This has to be applied before the ip address configuration.

sw-spine-001 [mlag-domain: master] # conf t
interface ethernet 1/16 speed 10G force
interface ethernet 1/16 mtu 1500 force
interface ethernet 1/16 no switchport force
interface ethernet 1/16 vrf forwarding Customer
interface ethernet 1/16 ip address 10.102.255.10/30 primary

sw-spine-002 [mlag-domain: master] # conf t
interface ethernet 1/16 speed 10G force
interface ethernet 1/16 mtu 1500 force
interface ethernet 1/16 no switchport force
interface ethernet 1/16 vrf forwarding Customer
interface ethernet 1/16 ip address 10.102.255.86/30 primary

vrf Customer will replace vrf default

sw-spine-001 [mlag-domain: master] # conf t
   ip route vrf Customer 0.0.0.0/0 10.102.255.9

sw-spine-002 [mlag-domain: master] # conf t
   ip route vrf Customer 0.0.0.0/0 10.102.255.85

Apply users/password

All that is required to re-apply the users is to get into the global configuration mode using conf t and paste in the configuration that was copied from the previous step.

Aruba Credentials

conf t
user admin group administrators password ciphertext xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Dell Credentials

conf t
system-user linuxadmin password xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
username admin password xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx role sysadmin priv-lvl 15

Mellanox Credentials

sw-spine-001 [standalone: master] # conf t
   username admin password 7 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
   username monitor password 7 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Apply SNMP credentials

Dell SNMP

conf t
   snmp-server group cray-reds-group 3 noauth read cray-reds-view
   snmp-server user testuser cray-reds-group 3 auth md5 xxxxxxxx priv des xxxxxxx
   snmp-server view cray-reds-view 1.3.6.1.2 included

Aruba SNMP

conf t
   snmp-server vrf default
   snmpv3 user testuser auth md5 auth-pass plaintext xxxxxx priv des priv-pass plaintext xxxxx
