Synopsis

The below requirements are needed on the host that executes this module.

  • ucsmsdk

Parameters

Parameter Choices/Defaults Comments

fabric

-

  • common

  • B

The fabric configuration of the VLAN. This can be one of the following:

common - The VLAN applies to both fabrics and uses the same configuration parameters in both cases.

For upstream disjoint L2 networks, Cisco recommends that you choose common to create VLANs that apply to both fabrics.

id

The unique string identifier assigned to the VLAN.

A VLAN ID can be between '1' and '3967', or between '4048' and '4093'.

You cannot create VLANs with IDs from 4030 to 4047. This range of VLAN IDs is reserved.

The VLAN IDs you specify must also be supported on the switch that you are using.

VLANs in the LAN cloud and FCoE VLANs in the SAN cloud must have different IDs.

Optional if state is absent.

multicast_policy

-

Default:

""

The multicast policy associated with this VLAN.

This option is only valid if the Sharing Type field is set to None or Primary.

You cannot change this name after the VLAN is created.
