     3This page describes any important-like things that happen in setting up the Sandbox 9. Sandbox 9 will first be networked using legacy switching and static VLANs. Once the controller is deployed, virtual switches will be used.

    11 == Preliminary setup based on ORBIT Network Infrastructure ==
    12 As of now (6/26/09), we still have not began work on a controller. Without the controller, the virtual switches are nonfunctional, so we first begin by trying to build Sandbox 9 using static VLANs and legacy firmware.

    14 On the NEC switch, 3 VLANS and a trunk are assigned in the following manner:
     15== Conventions used ==
     163 types of VLANs are used on the ORBIT testbed: CM, Control, and Data. While the CM VLAN spans across all 10 testbeds (Grid + 9 Sandboxes), each testbed has its own Control and Data VLANs.

    16  * port 1-4 : CM (VLAN 3)
    17  * port 5-8 : Control (VLAN 27)
    18  * port 9-12 : Data (VLAN 28)
    19  * port 55-58 : trunk
     18On the NEC switch, the 3 VLANS and a trunk are assigned in the following manner, according to conventions used for networking the Sandboxes:

    21 == DHCP Relay Agents ==
    22 No IP relay agents are needed for DHCP because these are only required when the dhcp server lives on one vlan, and hosts on another vlan need its service. In the case of this switch, dhcp comes from beyond the firewall, and comes in from the trunk.
     20 ||Usage||Ports||VLAN ID||
     21 ||CM||1-4||3||
     22 ||Control||5-8||27||
     23 ||Data||9-12||28||
     24 ||Trunk||55-58||-||
     25 
     26== DHCP  ==
     27DHCP relay agents are only needed when the DHCP server and host are on separate VLANs. You don't need to configure the relay agent since the DHCP server is on the trunk connection and beyond the ASA. The ASA behaves as a router between the VLANs, and handles the relaying and VLAN tags.

    2430== Static VLAN Configuration ==
    2531The steps assume you are already logged in and in privileged mode on the switch. Configuration of the CM VLAN (VLAN 3) is shown here.
