Create a vNIC

During vNIC creation, you assign the vNIC to a server profile and set other properties. You can perform this task using either the CLI or the GUI. For the GUI procedure, refer to Add a vNIC in Oracle Fabric Manager 5.0.2 Administration Guide. This procedure is for the CLI.

  1. Create a server profile.

    For example, name the server profile server1 and include the public network name.

    [OFOS] add server-profile server1 alexander@iowa:ServerPort8
  2. Create a vNIC.

    For example, create a vNIC called vnic1 and terminate it on the public network port AAA.

    [OFOS] add vnic vnic1.server1 AAA
  3. Configure the vNIC.

    Assign the vNIC to a server profile and add a static address type and an IP address.

    [OFOS] set vnic vinc1.server1 -addr-type=static -IP-address=10.1.1.1/32
  4. Verify the vNIC and its server profile.
    [OFOS] show vnic vnic1.server1
    name          state  mac-addr  ipaddr      if   if-state  type     vlans
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------
    vnic1.server1 up/up            10.1.1.1/32      up        static   none
