FIP Snooping

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 ACLs to permit only
authorized FCoE traffic to be transmitted between an FCoE end-device and an FCF. The following Dell
Networking Operating System (OS) commands are used to configure and verify the FIP snooping feature.
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 FIP snooping generates.
Syntax
clear fip-snooping database interface vlan vlan-id {fcoe-mac-
address | enode-mac-address | fcf-mac-address}
