Command History
Version Description
9.9(0.0) Introduced on the FN IOM.
9.3.0.0 Introduced on the M I/O Aggregator and MXL 10/40GbE Switch with the FC Flex IO
module congured as an NPIV proxy gateway.
Usage Information
FCoE storage trac received from servers on a switch with the FC Flex IO module NPIV proxy gateway is de-
capsulated into Fibre Channel packets and forwarded over FC links to SAN switches in a specied fabric. You must
congure a separate FCoE VLAN for each fabric to which FCoE trac is forwarded. Any non-FCoE trac sent on
a dedicated FCoE VLAN will be dropped.
You congure the association between a dedicated VLAN, which carries FCoE trac from server CNAs over the
NPIV proxy gateway to a SAN fabric in which destination storage arrays are installed, in an FCoE map by using the
fabric id vlan command.
When you apply an FCoE map to a server-facing Ethernet port, the port is automatically congured as a tagged
member of the FCoE VLAN.
For more information about VLANs and the commands to congure them, refer to the Virtual LAN (VLAN)
Commands section of the Layer 2 chapter.
