Create a Public Network

This procedure creates a public network and configures it to use VLANs. This procedure is for the CLI.

1. Create a public network and assign it to a group.

   For example, this public network is named LLL on slot 2, port 1, and it belongs to the West group.

   [OFOS] add public-network LLL 333 2/1 -group-name=West

2. Configure the public network to use VLANs.

   For example, this public network uses a VLAN named INT.

   [OFOS] set public-network add allowed-vlans INT [start1-end,start2-end2]

   For a list of default values of a public network, refer to the public-network in Oracle Fabric OS 1.0.2 Command Reference.

3. Verify the public network you created and configured.

   [OFOS] show public-network
   name  group-name id   pkey  state  type   trunkMode mtu  oper-mtu mode description uplink allowed-vlans
   -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   KKK   default    777  7fff  up/up  subnet true      1500  1500     UD               4.2    1-11
   LLL   West       333  7fff  up/up  subnet true      1500  1500     UD               2/1    none

4. (Optional) If you plan to use server profiles, create them now.
