Basic FCIP Configuration

Once you have created FCIP links using the FCIP wizard, you may need to modify parameters for these
links. This includes modifying the FCIP profiles as well as the FCIP link parameters. Each Gigabit
Ethernet interface can have three active FCIP links at one time.
Once you have created FCIP links using the FCIP wizard, you may need to modify parameters for these

Ethernet interface can have three active FCIP links at one time.
To configure an FCIP link, follow these steps on both switches:
Configure the Gigabit Ethernet interface.
Step 1
Create an FCIP profile, and then assign the Gigabit Ethernet interface's IP address to the profile.
Step 2
Create an FCIP interface, and then assign the profile to the interface.
Step 3
Configure the peer IP address for the FCIP interface.
Step 4
Enable the interface.
Step 5

Creating FCIP Profiles

You must assign a local IP address of a Gigabit Ethernet interface or subinterface to the FCIP profile to
create an FCIP profile. You can assign IPv4 or IPv6 addresses to the interfaces.
