Metro VCS configuration with NETCONF overview
Metro VCS allows you to interconnect different locations and form clusters of Data Centers (DCs)
over long distance in order to provide Disaster Protection/Recovery and load sharing.
Refer to the Network OS Administrator’s Guide for information on Metro VCS and for the following
related information:
• Metro VCS using long distance ISL
• Metro VCS using standard ISL
• Metro VCS and distributed Ethernet VLAGs
Through the NETCONF interface, you can perform the following operations that affect the
functioning of Metro VCS:
• Use the <edit-config> RPC to activate, configure, or deactivate the Metro VCS Fabric ISL.
• Use the <edit-config> RPC to activate, configure, or deactivate Metro VCS using long distance
ISL on specific 10-Gigabit, 40-Gigabit, or Gigabit Ethernet interfaces.
• Use the <edit-config> RPC to activate, configure, or deactivate Metro VCS using standard ISL
on specific 10-Gigabit, 40-Gigabit, or Gigabit Ethernet interfaces.
• Use the <edit-config> RPC to activate, configure, or deactivate Metro VCS and distributed
Ethernet VLAGs on specific 10-Gigabit, 40-Gigabit, or Gigabit Ethernet interfaces.
• Use the <get-config> RPC to verify all or part of the global or per-port Metro VCS configuration.
Metro VCS must be enabled globally before it can be enabled on a specific interface.
Metro VCS parameters are defined in the brocade-vcs YANG module. For information about the
brocade-vcs YANG module, refer to the Network OS YANG Reference Manual.
Configuring Metro VCS using the long-distance-isl element
Each long distance ISL port of a VCS must be connected to a long distance ISL port on the remote
VCS. To configure a long distance ISL port, perform the following steps.
