Fip Snooping; Clear Fip-Snooping Database Interface Vlan - Dell Force10 Z9000 Reference Manual

FIP Snooping

The following Dell Force10 operating software (FTOS) commands are used to configure and verify the FIP snooping
feature on the S4810 and MXL Switch platforms.
In a converged Ethernet network, an MXL switch can operate as an intermediate Ethernet bridge to snoop on Fibre
Channel over Ethernet initialization protocol (FIP) packets during the login process on Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE)
forwarders (FCFs). Acting as a transit FIP snooping bridge, the switch uses dynamically created access control lists
(ACLs) to permit only authorized FCoE traffic to transmit between an FCoE end-device and an FCF.

clear fip-snooping database interface vlan

Clear FIP snooping information on a VLAN for a specified FCoE MAC address, ENode MAC address, or FCF MAC
address, and remove the corresponding ACLs generated by FIP snooping.
