NOTES
You can configure up to 20 FCIP tunnels on the Brocade FX8-24 and up to 8 tunnels on the Brocade
7800.
OPERANDS
This command has the following operands:
slot
ve_port
fciptunnel
Fabric OS Command Reference
53-1001764-01
-
Configure VLAN tagging on the default FCIP circuit.
-
Configure Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) markings.
-
Set the committed rate or minimum and maximum rates for the default circuit.
-
Configure a tunnel for FICON emulation.
portcfg fcipcircuit - Create, modify, and delete additional FCIP circuits.
-
Set or modify the committed rate or minimum and maximum rates for the circuit.
-
Configure or change VLAN tagging on the default circuit.
-
Set or modify additional circuit parameters.
portcfg mgmtif - Configure the inband management interfaces.
portcfg mgmtroute - Configure the routes for the inband management interfaces.
For bladed systems only, specifies the slot number of the port to be configured,
followed by a slash (/).
Specifies the number of the VE_Port associated with the tunnel configured on one
of the GbE/10GbE ports to be configured. The VE_Ports are numbered 16-23 on
the Brocade 7800.
Creates, modifies, or deletes a Fibre Channel over IP (FCIP) tunnel.
Note the following port mapping rules on the Brocade FX8-24: The Brocade
FX8-24 has two FCIP chips and each one controls specific GbE ports and VE
ports. The first FCIP chip controls VE_Ports 12-21, and the GbE ports ge0-ge9
and the local XGE port, xge1. The second FCIP chip controls VE_Ports 22-31 and
the local XGE port, xge0. Typically (that is in the case when you do not configure a
failover crossport) you use the IP addresses on ge0-ge9 and xge1 for any FCIP
circuits that use VE_Ports 12-21. And likewise, you use IP addresses on xge0 for
any FCIP circuits that use VE_Ports 22-31. When you configure a failover
crossport, the VE_Ports on one chip are allowed to use the IP addresses on the
non-local chip's XGE port (crossport).
The syntax for portcfg fciptunnel is as follows:
portcfg fciptunnel [slot/]ve_port options [tunnel_arguments] [circuit_arguments]
The following options are supported with fciptunnel:
create [tunnel_arguments][circuit_arguments]
Creates an FCIP tunnel and, optionally a single default circuit. If no circuit
arguments are specified, no FCIP circuit will be created. While it is possible to
create a tunnel without a default circuit, it is an unlikely scenario (for example, for
configuration staging purposes). In most cases, you will create a tunnel with at
least one configured FCIP circuit. In this case, you must specify a remote and
local IP address for the circuit as well as a committed rate (or alternately, a
minimum and maximum committed rate) to configure the default circuit. The
default circuit created with the tunnel is automatically assigned the circuit ID 0.
You can modify the default circuit with the fciptunnel modify command. To add
additional circuits to an existing tunnel, use the fcipcircuit create command.
