Configuring FCIP tunnels

After you have verified licensing and connectivity between source and destination IP interfaces, you can
configure FCIP tunnels. As you plan the tunnel configurations, be aware that uncommitted rate tunnels use
a minimum of 1000 Kbps, up to a maximum of available uncommitted bandwidth on the GbE port. The
total bandwidth available on a GbE port is 1 Gbps. You can configure tunnels as bidirectional entities with
different commit rates in both directions.
NOTE: You cannot create FCIP tunnels that connect to an HP StorageWorks MP Router.
The command syntax is as follows.
portcfg fciptunnel [slot/]ge0|ge1 create tunnel_id remote_ip_addr
local_ip_addr comm_rate [-c] [-s] [-f] [-t] [-M] [-n remote_wwn] [-k
timeout] [-r retransmissions] [-m time] [-q control_dscp]
[-Q data_dscp] [-v vlan_id] [-p control_L2CoS] [-P data_L2CoS] [-ike
ike_number] [-ipsec ipsec_number] [-key preshared_key]

"About the ipperf
The number of a slot in a 4/256 SAN Director or DC Director chassis that
contains an FR4- 1 8i blade. This parameter does not apply to the
stand-alone 400 Multi-protocol Router.
The Ethernet port used by the tunnel (ge0 or ge1).
The tunnel number (0-7).
The IP address for the remote end of the tunnel.
The IP address for the local end of the tunnel.
The committed comm rate for the tunnel.
Enables compression on this tunnel.
Disables selective acknowledgement code (SACK) on the specified tunnel.
