Cisco MDS 9000 Series

Step 3 switch(config-vsan-db)# vsan 2
Creates a VSAN with the specified ID (2) if that VSAN does not exist already.
Step 4 switch(config-vsan-db)# vsan 2 interface fc1/8
Assigns the membership of the fc1/8 interface to the specified VSAN (VSAN 2).
Step 5 switch(config-vsan-db)# vsan 7
Creates another VSAN with the specified ID (7) if that VSAN does not exist already.
Step 6 switch(config-vsan-db)# vsan 7 interface fc1/8
Updates the membership information of the interface to reflect the changed VSAN.
Step 7 switch(config-vsan-db)# vsan 1 interface fc1/8
Removes the interface fc1/8 from VSAN 7 to VSAN 1( the default VSAN).
To remove the VSAN membership of interface fc1/8 from VSAN 7, you should define the VSAN membership of fc1/8
to another VSAN.
The best practice is to assign it back to VSAN 1.
Displaying VSAN Static Membership
To display the VSAN static membership information, use the show vsan membership command (see Displays
Membership Information for the Specified VSAN, on page 14 through Displays Static Membership Information
for a Specified Interface, on page 15).
