Configuring Universal Network Profiles Configuring Profiles
OmniSwitch AOS Release 7 Network Configuration Guide June 2013 page 27-35
To configure a SPB service UNP, use the unp spb-profile command. For example, the following
command creates the “vNP1” profile to assign device traffic tagged with VLAN 10 to service 1500 bound
to BVLAN 500 and apply the rules from the “ServerA_rules” policy list:
-> unp spb-profile vNP1 tag-value 10 isid 1500 bvlan 500 qos-policy-list
ServerA_rules
The following command example changes the multicast replication mode and enables egress VLAN trans-
lation for the service profile:
-> unp spb-profile spb3 tag-value 200 isid 1500 bvlan 4002 multicast-mode tandem
vlan-xlation enable
To verify the service UNP configuration for the switch, use the show unp spb-profile command. For
more information about user profiles, see “UNP Overview” on page 27-9.
Enabling Dynamic VLAN Profile Configuration
The UNP feature provides the ability to enable dynamic VLAN profile configuration, which allows “on
the fly” configuration of profiles when specific traffic conditions occur. By default, dynamic profile
configuration is disabled for the switch. To enable this functionality, use the unp dynamic-profile-config-
uration command. For example:
-> unp dynamic-profile-configuration enable
Use the disable option with the dynamic-profile-configuration command to disable this functionality.
For example:
-> unp dynamic-profile-configuration disable
Dynamic profile configuration is a global UNP setting that is applied to traffic on any UNP port that is
configured to trust the VLAN tag of the incoming packets. To verify if this setting is enabled or disabled,
use the show unp global configuration command.
Consider the following when enabling dynamic profile configuration:
• A profile is only dynamically created if the trust VLAN tag is enabled for the UNP port and the packet
VLAN tag matches an MVRP VLAN ID that is not assigned to a UNP or there is no matching VLAN
ID in the switch configuration.
• Dynamically created profiles are saved in the boot.cfg file for the switch.
• By default, dynamically created profiles are automatically named dynamic_profile_vlan_id, where the
VLAN ID is the ID of the VLAN contained in the packet tag.
• After the dynamic profile is created, changing the profile name, associated VLAN ID, or the QoS
policy list is allowed. To avoid any confusion, change the profile name if the VLAN ID associated
with the profile has changed.
• If the dynamic profile configuration option is enabled along with the dynamic VLAN configuration
option, if the dynamic creation of a profile refers to a VLAN that is a MVRP VLAN, then the MVRP
VLAN is automatically converted to a dynamic UNP VLAN (UNP-DYN-VLAN).
