Introduction

The Multitenant Device Context (MDC) technology can partition a physical device or an IRF fabric into multiple logical devices. Each of the logical devices is called an MDC.

This document provides MDC configuration examples.

Prerequisites

The configuration examples in this document were created and verified in a lab environment, and all the devices were started with the factory default configuration. When you are working on a live network, make sure you understand the potential impact of every command on your network.

This document assumes that you have basic knowledge of MDC.

General restrictions and guidelines

Licensing requirements for MDC

MDC requires a license to run on the device. If no license is installed or the license expires or is uninstalled, you cannot create, start, or use non-default MDCs.

Default MDC and non-default MDCs

A device supporting MDCs is called the default MDC. The default MDC always uses the name Admin and the ID 1. You cannot delete it or change its name or ID. When you log in to the physical device, you are logged in to the default MDC. Configuring the physical device is the same as configuring the default MDC.

On the default MDC, you can perform the following tasks:

·     Manage the entire physical device.

·     Create and delete non-default MDCs.

·     Assign resources to non-default MDCs. The resources include interfaces, CPU resources, and memory space.

No MDCs can be created on a non-default MDC. Administrators of non-default MDCs can manage and maintain only their respective MDCs.

A non-default MDC can use only the resources assigned to it. It cannot use the resources assigned to other MDCs or the remaining resources on the physical device. Resources that are not assigned to any non-default MDC belong to the default MDC.

The following commands are supported only on the default MDC but take effect on or display information about all MDCs: system-working-mode, clock datetime, link-aggregation capability, hardware-resource tcam, display hardware-resource tcam, and ecmp mode enhanced.

MDC upgrade

All MDCs on a device or IRF fabric run the same version of images. To upgrade the MDCs, you need to log in to and upgrade only the default MDC. The system completes software upgrade for all the other MDCs automatically.

To install a patch image on the default MDC, make sure all MDCs are in Active state. A non-default MDC enters Active state after you create it, start it, use the switchto mdc command to log in to it, and press Ctrl+D or Ctrl+C to exit the automatic configuration process and enter user view.

During an ISSU, a subordinate device automatically synchronizes the master device's configuration and status data. You must wait for the synchronization to complete. To identify whether the synchronization is complete, use the display system stable state command. The synchronization is complete if all the state fields for the system and MDCs display Stable. You can continue to execute the following commands only after the synchronization is complete: issu load, issu run switchover, issu commit, install activate, and install deactivate.

Hardware resource assignment

When you create an MDC, the system automatically assigns resources to the MDC, including CPU resources and memory space. You can adjust the CPU and memory resource allocations as required without rebooting the MDCs.

An MDC needs interfaces to forward packets. The system does not automatically assign LPUs or interfaces to MDCs. For an MDC to forward traffic, you must assign interfaces and LPUs to MDCs.

Assignment of physical interfaces and LPUs

Restrictions and guidelines for both standalone and IRF modes

·     Make sure no other users are configuring an interface before you assign the interface to or reclaim the interface from an MDC.

·     The console ports always belong to the default MDC and cannot be assigned to a non-default MDC. Using the switchto mdc command to log in to a non-default MDC is equivalent to logging in to the MDC through a console port.

·     The physical management Ethernet interfaces always belong to the default MDC and cannot be assigned to a non-default MDC. When you create an MDC, the system automatically creates one virtual management Ethernet interface for each physical management Ethernet interface on the MDC. A virtual management Ethernet interface uses the same interface number, physical port, and link as its corresponding physical management Ethernet interface.

¡     You can assign IP addresses to the virtual management Ethernet interfaces for access to the MDC. The IP addresses for the virtual management Ethernet interfaces of different MDCs can belong to the same subnet or different subnets.

¡     You can use the shutdown command to shut down management Ethernet interfaces only on the default MDC.

·     All interfaces on an LPU belong to the same interface group and must be assigned to or removed from the same MDC at the same time.

·     A physical interface can be assigned to only one MDC.

·     A non-default MDC can use an interface only after you assign the interface to the MDC and then assign the LPU where the interface resides to the MDC.

·     An interface to be assigned to a non-default MDC must belong to the default MDC. To assign an interface that belongs to one non-default MDC to another non-default MDC, you must reclaim the interface first. To reclaim physical interfaces from an MDC, you must first reclaim the LPUs where the physical interfaces reside from all MDCs, including the default MDC.

·     Reclaiming interfaces and LPUs from MDCs results in service outage. To reduce service outage, follow these steps when you assign interfaces to MDCs:

a.     Identify the LPUs where the interfaces reside.

b.     Identify the MDCs that are using the LPUs.

c.     Reclaim the LPUs from the MDCs.

d.     Reclaim the interfaces assigned.

e.     Assign the interfaces to MDCs.

f.     Assign the LPUs to MDCs.

Steps a to d are not required when you assign interfaces on an idle LPU to MDCs.

Restrictions and guidelines specific for IRF mode

·     MDCs created on an IRF fabric cannot form an IRF fabric.

·     To configure MDCs for a device that you want to add to an IRF fabric, add the device to the IRF fabric before configuring MDCs. After a device joins an IRF fabric, it reboots and loads the master device's configuration instead of its own. All its settings except IRF port settings are lost.

·     For IRF link availability, establish a minimum of two IRF links that use different LPUs on each member device. To avoid IRF fabric split, make sure each member device always has a minimum of one IRF link in up state while you are configuring MDCs.

·     The administrator of a non-default MDC can change the settings of an IRF physical interface that is assigned to the MDC. As a best practice, leave IRF physical interfaces to the default MDC. If you have to assign IRF physical interfaces to a non-default MDC, the two IRF physical interfaces of an IRF link must belong to the same MDC, as shown in Figure 1.

Figure 1 IRF links for MDCs

 

·     To remove an LPU that holds the IRF physical interface of a non-default MDC, first complete the following tasks:

a.     Remove the IRF physical interface configuration for the LPU.

b.     Use the save command to save the running configuration.

·     To assign an IRF physical interface to or reclaim it from an MDC, you must first shut it down and then remove its binding to the IRF port. Save the running configuration after assigning or reclaim the interface.

Restrictions and guidelines for interface configuration

·     Assigning or reclaiming a physical interface restores the settings of the interface to the defaults.

·     To configure parameters for a physical interface that has been assigned to an MDC, you must log in to the MDC.

CPU weight configuration

To ensure correct operation of all MDCs, assign them CPU weights. All MDCs share the CPU resources of the device. If one MDC occupies too many CPU resources, the other MDCs might not be able to operate.

The device supports adjusting CPU weights for MDCs without rebooting MDCs.

The number of CPU resources an MDC can use depends on the percentage of its CPU weight among the CPU weights of all MDCs that share the same CPU. For example, if three MDCs share the same CPU, setting their weights to 10, 10, and 5 is equivalent to setting their weights to 2, 2, and 1.

·     The two MDCs with the same weight can use the CPU for approximately the same period of time.

·     The third MDC can use the CPU for approximately half of the time for each of the other two MDCs.

The CPU weight specified for an MDC takes effect on all MPUs and all LPUs assigned to the MDC

Memory space allocation

The MDCs on a device share and compete for the system memory space. If an MDC occupies too much memory space, the other MDCs might not be able to operate correctly. To avoid this problem, specify a memory space percentage for each MDC.

Before you specify a memory space percentage for an MDC, use the display mdc resource command to view how much memory space the MDC is using. Make sure the memory space you assign to an MDC is sufficient for the MDC to operate correctly.

Cooperation between MDC and other protocols

To configure IRF MAD, create a VLAN. The VLAN is dedicated for MAD. MDCs cannot use the VLAN for packet forwarding.

You cannot deploy graceful restart between two MDCs configured on the same physical device or IRF fabric. If you fail to follow this rule, graceful restart will fail because of the absence of a GR helper.

MDC reboot

Non-default MDCs are isolated from each other. Rebooting a non-default MDC that does not hold an IRF physical interface does not affects the operation of the other MDCs.

If you reboot a non-default MDC that holds the only IRF physical interface in up state, the system displays an error message. Removing or re-installing the IRF physical interface causes an IRF split.

Rebooting the default MDC reboots the entire system, resulting in service outage.

Example: Configuring MDCs in standalone mode

Network configuration

As shown in Figure 2, two departments need to use the device to access the Internet.

Configure two MDCs on the device to meet the Internet access requirements of two departments.

·     Assign Ten-GigabitEthernet 2/0/1 through Ten-GigabitEthernet 2/0/48 to MDCA.

·     Assign Ten-GigabitEthernet 3/0/1 through Ten-GigabitEthernet 3/0/48 to MDCB.

Example: Configuring MDCs in IRF mode

Network configuration

As shown in Figure 3, two departments need to use the IRF fabric to access the Internet. In the IRF fabric, each member device has two LPUs. Each LPU has 48 XGE interfaces.

The two member devices are connected with one IRF link. The IRF port on the master device is IRF port 1. The IRF port on the subordinate device is IRF port 2. IRF port 1 is bound with HundredGigE 1/4/0/1. IRF port 2 is bound with HundredGigE 2/4/0/1.

Configure two MDCs on the IRF fabric to meet the Internet access requirements of two departments.

·     Assign the following interfaces to MDCA:

¡     Ten-GigabitEthernet 1/2/0/1 through Ten-GigabitEthernet 1/2/0/48 on the master device.

¡     Ten-GigabitEthernet 2/2/0/1 through Ten-GigabitEthernet 2/2/0/48 on the subordinate device.

·     Assign the following interfaces to MDCB:

¡     Ten-GigabitEthernet 1/3/0/1 through Ten-GigabitEthernet 1/3/0/48 on the master device.

¡     Ten-GigabitEthernet 2/3/0/1 through Ten-GigabitEthernet 2/3/0/48 on the subordinate device.

Figure 3 Network diagram

 

Analysis

Each member device must always have a minimum of one IRF link in up state during the MDC configuration. If you fail to do so, an IRF fabric split occurs. As a best practice, leave IRF physical interfaces to the default MDC if you have enough interface resources.

Procedures

1.     Construct an IRF fabric on the device MDC. For more information about how to construct an IRF fabric, see IRF fabric configuration in Virtual Technologies Configuration Guide.
