Can I export traffic to mgf interface?

Combination View Flat View Tree View
 
Hi,
In our router 3900 we have sre-900-k9.  If we configure the interfaces following the instructions in Installation and Configuration Guide for Cisco Service Ready Engine Virtualization as follows, can we use RITE to export traffic to sm 1/1?:
 
interface SM1/0
 ip address 172.25.192.130 255.255.255.240
 service-module ip address 172.25.192.131 255.255.255.240
 !Application: VMware ESXi 5.0.0 build-474610 running on SRE
 service-module ip default-gateway 172.25.192.130
 hold-queue 60 out
end
interface SM1/1
 description Internal switch interface connected to Service Module
 switchport mode trunk
 no ip address
end
interface Vlan30
 ip address 172.25.192.147 255.255.255.240
end
If we create virtual interface vlan1, traffic is exported to sm1/1, but if we use vlan30 we don't see any exported traffic at sm1/1.
 
Thanks!
 

Hi Vijay,

I don’t see the configuration for RITE in the running configuration you provided. Please include your actual configuration. You mentioned that the export to the SM 1/1 interface works when you have configured vlan1, but not vlan30 in the router. I’d like to see the configuration for each as well.

Thanks,

Hi Brett,

Here is the configuration:

Thanks!

Hi Vijay,

Thanks for your configuration. I see that you are collecting packets from Vlan30 and GigabitEthernet0/0.100 for the SM1/0 interface. Regarding your question about Vlan30, in the example provided in the Installation and Configuration Guide, the assumption is that packets are coming from the switch on vlan30 and that you want these to reach a particular VM. For this to work within ESXI you need to create a VM Port Group with ID 30, and assign that as the Network Adapter of your particular VM.

If you've already completed the steps above and still see the issue with RITE, please try adding the campus-NCN vrf to the SM 1/0 interface and see if that resolves the issue. If it's still not working, please send the following:

1. The version of SRE-V being employed.

2. The router IOS version

3. Enclose a screen shot from the vSphere client of your network configuration. You can get this by clicking on the host, then the Configuration tab, and finally click on the Networking link on the left.

Thanks,

Brett

Hi Vijay,

I forgot to mention that once you assign your VM to the Network Adapter that has the vlan ID, that in your router you may need to create a route to the VM. I've provided an example below where IP 198.55.147.39 is the IP of the VM.

config t
ip route 198.55.147.39 255.255.255.255 Vlan30
exit
copy run start

Thanks,

Brett
