Operating Systems AIX Changing VLAN on AIX lpars in the same subnet Post 302975484 by kaelu26 on Tuesday 14th of June 2016 03:49:23 AM

Changing VLAN on AIX lpars in the same subnet

Hi Guys,

Our lpars is currently running on 2 different vlans (20, 30). Now we have a requirement that vlan 30 needs to be change to vlan 31 at the same subnet. I'm not sure on what is the best approach for this or what change is involve on the AIX side.

This is our setup.

Network switch - trunked (allowed vlan 20, 30)
note: vlan 20 is the previous default vlan before it was changed to "trunked" and added vlan 30.

VIO1 and VIO2 - SEA (ent4) with ent2 (PVID 1) and ent3 (PVID 88, VLAN ID 30) attached to it.

lpar 1 - ent0 (PVID 1)
lpar 2 - ent0 (PVID 30)

Scenario:

Network team needs to change vlan 30 to vlan 31.

Change to be made on AIX lpars:

1. on VIOS, Add a new virtual adapter on SEA with PVID 89, VLAN ID 31
2. on lpar 2, this is where I'm confused if I need to change anything or not. Do I need to change PVID 30 to 31? Or I can just DLPAR the current ent0 and add VLAN 31 there?

I'm also confused on how PVID works on AIX clients.

Any inputs will be very much appreciated.

Regards,
K

NAME
SNMP::Info::RapidCity - SNMP Interface to the Nortel RapidCity MIB AUTHOR
Eric Miller SYNOPSIS
# Let SNMP::Info determine the correct subclass for you. my $rapidcity = new SNMP::Info( AutoSpecify => 1, Debug => 1, # These arguments are passed directly to SNMP::Session DestHost => 'myswitch', Community => 'public', Version => 2 ) or die "Can't connect to DestHost. "; my $class = $rapidcity->class(); print "SNMP::Info determined this device to fall under subclass : $class "; DESCRIPTION
SNMP::Info::RapidCity is a subclass of SNMP::Info that provides an interface to the "RAPID-CITY" MIB. This MIB is used across the Nortel Ethernet Routing Switch and Ethernet Switch product lines (Formerly known as Passport, BayStack, and Accelar). Use or create in a subclass of SNMP::Info. Do not use directly. Inherited Classes None. Required MIBs RAPID-CITY GLOBAL METHODS
These are methods that return scalar values from SNMP $rapidcity->rc_base_mac() ("rc2kChassisBaseMacAddr") $rapidcity->rc_serial() ("rcChasSerialNumber") $rapidcity->rc_ch_rev() ("rcChasHardwareRevision") $rapidcity->chassis() ("rcChasType") $rapidcity->slots() ("rcChasNumSlots") $rapidcity->rc_virt_ip() ("rcSysVirtualIpAddr") $rapidcity->rc_virt_mask() ("rcSysVirtualNetMask") $rapidcity->tftp_host() ("rcTftpHost") $rapidcity->tftp_file() ("rcTftpFile") $rapidcity->tftp_action() ("rcTftpAction") $rapidcity->tftp_result() ("rcTftpResult") Overrides $rapidcity->serial() Returns serial number of the chassis TABLE METHODS
These are methods that return tables of information in the form of a reference to a hash. $rapidcity->i_duplex() Returns reference to map of IIDs to current link duplex. $rapidcity->i_duplex_admin() Returns reference to hash of IIDs to admin duplex setting. $rapidcity->i_vlan() Returns a mapping between "ifIndex" and the PVID or default VLAN. $rapidcity->i_vlan_membership() Returns reference to hash of arrays: key = "ifIndex", value = array of VLAN IDs. These are the VLANs which are members of the egress list for the port. Example: my $interfaces = $rapidcity->interfaces(); my $vlans = $rapidcity->i_vlan_membership(); foreach my $iid (sort keys %$interfaces) { my $port = $interfaces->{$iid}; my $vlan = join(',', sort(@{$vlans->{$iid}})); print "Port: $port VLAN: $vlan "; } $rapidcity->v_index() Returns VLAN IDs ("rcVlanId") RAPID-CITY Port Table ("rcPortTable") $rapidcity->rc_index() ("rcPortIndex") $rapidcity->rc_duplex() ("rcPortOperDuplex") $rapidcity->rc_duplex_admin() ("rcPortAdminDuplex") $rapidcity->rc_speed_admin() ("rcPortAdminSpeed") $rapidcity->rc_auto() ("rcPortAutoNegotiate") $rapidcity->rc_alias() ("rcPortName") RAPID-CITY CPU Ethernet Port Table ("rc2kCpuEthernetPortTable") $rapidcity->rc_cpu_ifindex() ("rc2kCpuEthernetPortIfIndex") $rapidcity->rc_cpu_admin() ("rc2kCpuEthernetPortAdminStatus") $rapidcity->rc_cpu_oper() ("rc2kCpuEthernetPortOperStatus") $rapidcity->rc_cpu_ip() ("rc2kCpuEthernetPortAddr") $rapidcity->rc_cpu_mask() ("rc2kCpuEthernetPortMask") $rapidcity->rc_cpu_auto() ("rc2kCpuEthernetPortAutoNegotiate") $rapidcity->rc_cpu_duplex_admin() ("rc2kCpuEthernetPortAdminDuplex") $rapidcity->rc_cpu_duplex() ("rc2kCpuEthernetPortOperDuplex") $rapidcity->rc_cpu_speed_admin() ("rc2kCpuEthernetPortAdminSpeed") $rapidcity->rc_cpu_speed_oper() ("rc2kCpuEthernetPortOperSpeed") $rapidcity->rc_cpu_mac() ("rc2kCpuEthernetPortMgmtMacAddr") RAPID-CITY VLAN Port Table ("rcVlanPortTable") $rapidcity->rc_i_vlan_if() ("rcVlanPortIndex") $rapidcity->rc_i_vlan_num() ("rcVlanPortNumVlanIds") $rapidcity->rc_i_vlan() ("rcVlanPortVlanIds") $rapidcity->rc_i_vlan_type() ("rcVlanPortType") $rapidcity->rc_i_vlan_pvid() ("rcVlanPortDefaultVlanId") $rapidcity->rc_i_vlan_tag() ("rcVlanPortPerformTagging") RAPID-CITY VLAN Table ("rcVlanTable") $rapidcity->rc_vlan_id() ("rcVlanId") $rapidcity->v_name() ("rcVlanName") $rapidcity->rc_vlan_color() ("rcVlanColor") $rapidcity->rc_vlan_if() ("rcVlanIfIndex") $rapidcity->rc_vlan_stg() ("rcVlanStgId") $rapidcity->rc_vlan_type() ("rcVlanType") $rapidcity->rc_vlan_members() ("rcVlanPortMembers") $rapidcity->rc_vlan_mac() ("rcVlanMacAddress") RAPID-CITY IP Address Table ("rcIpAddrTable") $rapidcity->rc_ip_index() ("rcIpAdEntIfIndex") $rapidcity->rc_ip_addr() ("rcIpAdEntAddr") $rapidcity->rc_ip_type() ("rcIpAdEntIfType") RAPID-CITY Chassis Fan Table ("rcChasFanTable") $rapidcity->rc_fan_op() ("rcChasFanOperStatus") RAPID-CITY Power Supply Table ("rcChasPowerSupplyTable") $rapidcity->rc_ps_op() ("rcChasPowerSupplyOperStatus") RAPID-CITY Power Supply Detail Table ("rcChasPowerSupplyDetailTable") $rapidcity->rc_ps_type() ("rcChasPowerSupplyDetailType") $rapidcity->rc_ps_serial() ("rcChasPowerSupplyDetailSerialNumber") $rapidcity->rc_ps_rev() ("rcChasPowerSupplyDetailHardwareRevision") $rapidcity->rc_ps_part() ("rcChasPowerSupplyDetailPartNumber") $rapidcity->rc_ps_detail() ("rcChasPowerSupplyDetailDescription") RAPID-CITY Card Table ("rcCardTable") $rapidcity->rc_c_type() ("rcCardType") $rapidcity->rc_c_serial() ("rcCardSerialNumber") $rapidcity->rc_c_rev() ("rcCardHardwareRevision") $rapidcity->rc_c_part() ("rcCardPartNumber") RAPID-CITY 2k Card Table ("rc2kCardTable") $rapidcity->rc2k_c_ftype() ("rc2kCardFrontType") $rapidcity->rc2k_c_fdesc() ("rc2kCardFrontDescription") $rapidcity->rc2k_c_fserial() ("rc2kCardFrontSerialNum") $rapidcity->rc2k_c_frev() ("rc2kCardFrontHwVersion") $rapidcity->rc2k_c_fpart() ("rc2kCardFrontPartNumber") $rapidcity->rc2k_c_fdate() ("rc2kCardFrontDateCode") $rapidcity->rc2k_c_fdev() ("rc2kCardFrontDeviations") $rapidcity->rc2k_c_btype() ("rc2kCardBackType") $rapidcity->rc2k_c_bdesc() ("rc2kCardBackDescription") $rapidcity->rc2k_c_bserial() ("rc2kCardBackSerialNum") $rapidcity->rc2k_c_brev() ("rc2kCardBackHwVersion") $rapidcity->rc2k_c_bpart() ("rc2kCardBackPartNumber") $rapidcity->rc2k_c_bdate() ("rc2kCardBackDateCode") $rapidcity->rc2k_c_bdev() ("rc2kCardBackDeviations") RAPID-CITY MDA Card Table ("rc2kMdaCardTable") $rapidcity->rc2k_mda_type() ("rc2kMdaCardType") $rapidcity->rc2k_mda_desc() ("rc2kMdaCardDescription") $rapidcity->rc2k_mda_serial() ("rc2kMdaCardSerialNum") $rapidcity->rc2k_mda_rev() ("rc2kMdaCardHwVersion") $rapidcity->rc2k_mda_part() ("rc2kMdaCardPartNumber") $rapidcity->rc2k_mda_date() ("rc2kMdaCardDateCode") $rapidcity->rc2k_mda_dev() ("rc2kMdaCardDeviations") SET METHODS
These are methods that provide SNMP set functionality for overridden methods or provide a simpler interface to complex set operations. See "SETTING DATA VIA SNMP" in SNMP::Info for general information on set operations. $rapidcity->set_i_speed_admin(speed, ifIndex) Sets port speed, must be supplied with speed and port "ifIndex". Speed choices are 'auto', '10', '100', '1000'. Example: my %if_map = reverse %{$rapidcity->interfaces()}; $rapidcity->set_i_speed_admin('auto', $if_map{'1.1'}) or die "Couldn't change port speed. ",$rapidcity->error(1); $rapidcity->set_i_duplex_admin(duplex, ifIndex) Sets port duplex, must be supplied with duplex and port "ifIndex". Speed choices are 'auto', 'half', 'full'. Example: my %if_map = reverse %{$rapidcity->interfaces()}; $rapidcity->set_i_duplex_admin('auto', $if_map{'1.1'}) or die "Couldn't change port duplex. ",$rapidcity->error(1); $rapidcity->set_i_vlan(vlan, ifIndex) Changes an access (untagged) port VLAN, must be supplied with the numeric VLAN ID and port "ifIndex". This method will modify the port's VLAN membership and PVID (default VLAN). This method should only be used on end station (non-trunk) ports. Example: my %if_map = reverse %{$rapidcity->interfaces()}; $rapidcity->set_i_vlan('2', $if_map{'1.1'}) or die "Couldn't change port VLAN. ",$rapidcity->error(1); $rapidcity->set_i_pvid(pvid, ifIndex) Sets port PVID or default VLAN, must be supplied with the numeric VLAN ID and port "ifIndex". This method only changes the PVID, to modify an access (untagged) port use set_i_vlan() instead. Example: my %if_map = reverse %{$rapidcity->interfaces()}; $rapidcity->set_i_pvid('2', $if_map{'1.1'}) or die "Couldn't change port PVID. ",$rapidcity->error(1); $rapidcity->set_add_i_vlan_tagged(vlan, ifIndex) Adds the port to the egress list of the VLAN, must be supplied with the numeric VLAN ID and port "ifIndex". Example: my %if_map = reverse %{$rapidcity->interfaces()}; $rapidcity->set_add_i_vlan_tagged('2', $if_map{'1.1'}) or die "Couldn't add port to egress list. ",$rapidcity->error(1); $rapidcity->set_remove_i_vlan_tagged(vlan, ifIndex) Removes the port from the egress list of the VLAN, must be supplied with the numeric VLAN ID and port "ifIndex". Example: my %if_map = reverse %{$rapidcity->interfaces()}; $rapidcity->set_remove_i_vlan_tagged('2', $if_map{'1.1'}) or die "Couldn't add port to egress list. ",$rapidcity->error(1); $rapidcity->set_delete_vlan(vlan) Deletes the specified VLAN from the device. $rapidcity->set_create_vlan(name, vlan) Creates the specified VLAN on the device. Note: This method only allows creation of Port type VLANs and does not allow for the setting of the Spanning Tree Group (STG) which defaults to 1. perl v5.12.4 2011-09-28 Info::RapidCity(3pm)
