PING fails from SVM LIFs

Japanese_human8888

In FAS2552 ONTAP 9.8, I created an SVM for NFS and created a LIF, but there is a problem that PING does not pass.

 

PING is returned from lif1 to lif1, but PING is not returned from lif2.

In this network, I can ping other segments, so I suspect a misconfiguration on the FAS side.
Please help me...

ONTAP is setup where it should work...if the switches were correctly setup.

 

Your switches are most certainly not setup correctly.

You should search online about vPC (Virtual Port Channels) and how to setup Nexus Switches.

You should probably update the code on the Nexus 5548s also.

I just took a look and the Cisco site does not even show major version 6 as a supported download for the Nexus 5548 models. Release 7.3(8)N1(1) is the most current for that platform.

 

As an EXAMPLE only (with an example of setting up a nexus pair of switches):

https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/unified_computing/ucs/UCS_CVDs/flexpod_datacenter_vmware_netappaffa_u2.html#_Toc32946723

 

Correct the switch config and the NetApp will work as expected.

Looks like you are not using your VLANs there buddy!

 

First make sure all a0a and a0a-10 ports are in the same broadcast domain.

Then modify the data LIFs to be home on the a0a-10 ports

Then from either remove (via GUI) or from the CLI use the "broadcast-domain split" command to remove (or split out) the a0a interfaces so your broadcast domain ends up with *just* a0a-10 ports.

 

Try your ping again and I suspect you will have luck!

Thank you for your answer.

 

I changed the home of data LIFs.
I changed the broadcast domain as follows.

But PING doesn't pass...


Why did you separate the broadcast domains for a0a and a0a-10?
Would you please tell me.

thank you.

You ask why on the Broadcast-domain...

A Broadcast-domain is a grouping of ports where LIFs are allowed to failover to.

All ports in the same broadcast domain should have the same networking capabilities.

 

a0a is a BASE interface and only obeys the native vlan (based on your config, no idea what that is)

a0a-10 is a TAGged VLAN and based on your config is the only allowed VLAN to pass

 

I think the configuration issue may be on your switch.

 

What type of switch and what operating system is on the switches? Normally when two switches are allowed, there are vPCs (on Nexus anyway) that allow for the multi-switch thing to work.

 

How about this output from ontap:

set diag

 

ifgrp show -fields ifgrp, distr-func, activeports, ports -sort-by node

 

net int show -vserver test -fields lif, address, netmask, curr-port ,home-port ,failover-policy ,failover-group -sort-by vserver, lif

 

route show -vserver test

 

net port show -port a0a-10 -fields broadcast-domain, mtu, link -sort-by node, port

 

From the switch, may a "show version", "show port-channel summary"...Again, I really believe the issue is a misconfig on the swirtches.
