Virtual Connect VMware vDS LLDP

Pedae — Wed, 17 Feb 2016 14:30:39 GMT

Hello,

i have a BL465c G/ Blades with a Virtual Connect Profile (HP VC Flex-10 Enet Module, Firmware 4,41) assigned to it.

In vSphere vCenter i have configured a vDistributed Virtual Switch with LLDP, but i cannot see any LLDP Information (Link Layer Discovery Protocol is not available on the physical adapter)

There should be LLDP Information from the VC Module.

Peter

ssh to the VCManager, use the following commands:

show lldp <PortID>

Xn for Uplink or dn for downlink, e.x. X2 or d16

To enable network loop protection, use the set loop-protect command:

>set loop-protect Enabled=true

To reset network loop protection, use the reset loop-protect command:

>reset loop-protect
