Suggestions for Tagging a management vlan over an ISIS/SPBM link.

Hello!

I have a scenario that involves two UISP antennas that will be linking together a 5420 to a 5320. 

I'm able to establish adjacencies with no issues, but unfortunately the unifi p2p's do not include a separate physical management interface. 

Is there a way to tag a management vlan over an ISIS/SPBM interface? 

1 ACCEPTED SOLUTION

The solution would be to tag classic VLANs on that port: one VLAN for management of the antennas themselves and one VLAN for an IP transfer network for a L3 Fabric Extend connection. In theory, this should work. However, I haven´t tested it and it would be interesting to see if it works.

Hi, 

you can enable: 
"boot config flags nni-mstp" 

This allows you to add VLANs (other than backbone-vlans) to an NNI link (isis interface).

BUT the added VLANs must not have an I-SID.

I saw that one in the documentation too. I'm sure this would solve the issue but I'm thinking i would have to do this on every single upstream switch to accomplish this. 

Thank you.

Interesting scenario. Using Fabric Extend sounds like a practical approach for carrying management traffic while keeping the SPBM fabric design clean. Thanks for pointing in that direction. www yearbookavenue com

Hi,

I imagine that using Fabric Extend you could achieve what you are looking for
