Hello all,
I was wondering while forming a port-channel between FI and a MDS switch, is it nencassary to apply the command"switchport rate-mode dedicated" as given in the workbook. As far as I know this command is applied when the port type is "e". But when the port is of type f (or the MDS have a feature npiv) then there is no need to use this command. I use the following configuration if I have to form a port channel from MDS to FI and allow vsan10
feature npiv
feature fport-channel-trunk
interface fc1/7-8
channel-group 2 force
interface port-channel 2
channel mode active
sw mode f
sw trunk allowed vsan 10
no shut
vsan database
vsan 10
vsan 10 interface po2
