Configuring the WSM using Device Manager

Configuring the 8600 switch for FWLB

To configure the 8600 in the basic FWLB example:

1. Configure new 8648TX VLANs using the settings in the following table. Assume all new VLANs use the same spanning-tree group. For more information, see Creating a port-based VLAN in the publication, Configuring Layer 2 Operations, part number 314725-A.
   
   

   VLAN field in Device Manager	Setting for 8648TX
   Id	11
   Name	FWLB WSM
   StgId	(Assume all new VLANs use same STG)
   Type	byPort
   Port Members	1/33, 1/48 (connect to interface 1 of firewall 1 and 2)
   Id	12
   Name	FWLB WSM
   StgId	(Assume all new VLANs use same STG)
   Type	byPort
   Port Members	1/1, 1/16 (connect to all SLB clients)
   Id	13
   Name	FWLB WSM
   StgId	(Assume all new VLANs use same STG)
   Type	byPort
   Port Members	7/33, 7/48 (connect to interface 2 of firewalls 1 and 2)
   Id	14
   Name	FWLB WSM
   StgId	(Assume all new VLANs use same STG)
   Type	byPort
   Port Members	7/1, 7/16 (connect to all SLB servers)

   
   
2. Add the newly created VLANs to MLT groups using the settings in the following table. For more information, see Configuring a multilink trunk in the publication, Configuring Layer 2 Operations, part number 314725-A.
   
   

   MLT field in Device Manager	Setting for 8648TX
   Id	32
   VlanId	11
   Id	31
   VlanId	12
   Id	30
   VlanId	13
   Id	29
   VlanId	14

   
   
3. Remove VLAN 1 and VLAN 2 from the default MLT configuration.
   
   

   MLT field in Device Manager	Setting for 8648TX
   Id	32
   VlanId	1 (remove)
   Id	30
   VlanId	1 (remove)
