VLAN membership:
•
You must create the VLANs on the switch which handles FCoE traffic (
•
You must configure each FIP snooping port to operate in Hybrid mode so that it accepts both
tagged and untagged VLAN frames (
•
You must configure tagged VLAN membership on each FIP snooping port that sends and receives
FCoE traffic and has links with an FCF, ENode server, or another FIP snooping bridge (
port-type slot/port
The default VLAN membership of the port should continue to operate with untagged frames. FIP
snooping is not supported on a port that is configured for non-default untagged VLAN membership.
FIP Snooping Restrictions
The following restrictions apply when you configure FIP snooping:
•
The maximum number of FCoE VLANs supported on the switch is 8.
•
The maximum number of FIP snooping sessions supported per ENode server is 16.
•
The maximum number of FCFs supported per FIP snooping-enabled VLAN is 4.
Configuration Procedure
You can enable FIP snooping globally on all FCoE VLANs on a switch or on an individual FCoE VLAN.
By default, FIP snooping is disabled.
To enable FIP snooping on the switch and configure FIP snooping parameters on ports, follow these steps:
Step
Task
1
Configure FCoE. The configuration files are
stored in the flash memory in the
CONFIG_TEMPLATE.
Note: DCB/DCBx are enabled when either of
these configurations is applied.
2
Save the configuration on the switch.
3
Reload the switch to enable the configuration.
After the switch is reloaded, DCB/DCBX will
be enabled.
4
Enable the FIP snooping feature on a switch.
5
Enable FIP snooping on all VLANs or on a
specified VLAN.
6
Configure the port for bridge-to-FCF links.
Note: To disable the FIP snooping feature or FIP snooping on VLANs, use the
