Repeat the same configuration on switch #2. Eliminate the dhcp relay
and interface Vlan 105
commands.
Catalyst 3850-48T using trunk ports
This configuration uses statically-assigned CIMC IPs on vlan 105
. All vlans
are allowed on all trunk interfaces. For security purposes, we recommend restricting the VLANs to those required for a HyperFlex
deployment by adding the switchport trunk allowed vlan
statement into all your port configurations.
