SmartFabric network configuration
The PowerEdge MX9002m management module hosts the OpenManage Enterprise Modular (OME-M) console. Creation and deployment
of SmartFabric topologies is facilitated using the OME-Modular console. SmartFabric is a web-based mechanism to create a reusable
networking template that can be applied to a PowerEdge MX7000 chassis, the IO modules (switches) and the compute sleds.
SmartFabric creates and configures the switches based on networking best practices. By selecting the topology, SmartFabric creates the
VLT domain and VLTi connections and creates the uplink LACP enabled link aggregations. It assigns VLANs to ports as either tagged or
untagged based on the networks that are created by the administrator through the SmartFabric interface.
NOTE:
For detailed instructions to deploy a SmartFabric, see
.
To deploy a SmartFabric, complete the following steps using the OME-Modular console:
1
Create chassis groups.
2
Create the networks to be used in the fabric.
3
Select IOMs and create the fabric that are based on the required physical topology.
4
Create uplinks from the fabric to the existing network and assign networks to those uplinks.
5
Deploy the appropriate server templates to the compute sleds.

About this task
CAUTION:
The firmware version of the PowerEdge MX9002m management module is critical to the creation of a chassis group.
Ensure that the Management Module firmware matches the version listed in the
section.
Chassis groups are defined in the PowerEdge MX9002m management modules in the PowerEdge MX7000 chassis. Before a chassis group
can be created, the chassis PowerEdge MX9002m modules must be cabled together as shown in the following figure.
