Table 13-5
IVR NAT Fails
Symptom
Possible Cause
Solution
IVR NAT fails.
Internal message payload uses
destination ID.
IVR NAT modifies the destination ID in the Fibre Channel
header. If this same destination ID appears inside the message
payload, Cisco SAN-OS may not detect it and IVR NAT fails.
Disable IVR NAT and ensure that all domain IDs are unique.
Refer to the Cisco MDS 9000 Family configuration guides at
the following website for a list of payloads that work with
IVR NAT when the payload includes the destination ID:

allation_and_configuration_guides_list.html
Some switches are running IVR
without NAT.
You cannot combine IVR and IVR NAT in the same VSAN.
Use the same IVR configuration on all switches. Deactivate
the active zone set before converting to IVR or IVR NAT.
