Advanced FCIP Profile Configuration

A basic FCIP configuration uses the local IP address to configure the FCIP profile. In addition to the
local IP address and the local port, you can specify other TCP parameters as part of the FCIP profile
configuration.
This sections includes the following topics:
•
•
•
FCIP configuration options can be accessed from the switch(Config-profile)# submode prompt.

Configuring TCP Listener Ports

To configure TCP listener ports, follow these steps:
Command
Step 1
switch# config terminal
switch(config)#
Step 2
switch(config)# fcip profile 20
switch(config-profile)#
The default TCP port for FCIP is 3225. You can change this port by using the port command.
To change the default FCIP port number (3225), follow these steps:
Command
Step 1
switch(config-profile)# port 5000
switch(config-profile)# no port

Purpose
Assigns the peer IPv4 address information
(10.1.1.1 for switch 2) to the FCIP interface.
Enables the interface.
Purpose
Enters configuration mode.
Creates an FCIP interface (52).
Binds the profile (20) to the FCIP interface.
Assigns the peer IPv4 address information (10.100.1.25
for switch 1) to the FCIP interface.
Enables the interface.
Purpose
Enters configuration mode.
Creates the profile (if it does not already exist) and enters profile
configuration submode. The valid range is from 1 to 255.
Purpose
Associates the profile with the local port number (5000).
