Run the SPBM Script

Use the following procedure to run the SPBM script to automate the minimum required SPBM and IS-IS parameters to enable Fabric Connect to operate on the switch.

Before you begin

Enable SPBM before running the SPBM script.
Delete existing IS-IS interfaces before running this script. See Remove Specific IS-IS and MLT Interfaces for information on removing IS-IS interfaces.

About this task

You can use this procedure to quickly configure the minimum SPBM and IS-IS parameters. However, a manual procedure is available instead of using this script. The default values are given in square brackets. You can input your values at the prompt or if you want to accept the default values, press Enter. This command first accepts all values and then removes existing SPBM configurations before configuring the entered values.

Note

This process causes the SPBM traffic to flap temporarily.

Procedure

Enter Global Configuration mode:

enable

configure terminal
Run the SPBM script:

run spbm

Note

If the script causes a configuration conflict or cannot execute a command, an error message displays and the script stops.

Example

Run the SPBM script:

Switch:1(config)#run spbm
