FCIP and PortChannel Port Numbers

FCIP and PortChannels cannot be used in a FICON enabled VSAN unless they are explicitly bound to a
port number. Refer
Numbers to FCIP Interfaces" section on page 23-15
You can assign port numbers which are not in the PortChannel range and which are not bound to

FCIP Port Numbers in the Cisco MDS 9000 Family
Supervisor modules do not have port number assignments.
Port number are VSAN independent--Fibre Channel port numbers do not change based on VSANs
or TE ports.
Each PortChannel must be explicitly associated with a FICON port number.
When the port number for a physical PortChannel becomes uninstalled, the relevant PortChannel
configuration is applied to the physical port.
Each FCIP tunnel must be explicitly associated with a FICON port number—If the port number is
not assigned for PortChannels or for FCIP tunnels, the associated ports will not come up (see the
