CLI Guide

downstream server CNA ports as FCoE forwarder (FCF) ports on an FCoE network. When applied to FC and
Ethernet ports on an NPIV proxy gateway, an FCoE map allows the switch to operate as an FCoE-FC bridge
between an FC SAN and an FCoE network by providing FCoE-enabled servers and switches with the necessary
parameters to log in to a SAN fabric. Use the fcoe-map command to create an FCoE map.
On a switch with the FC Flex IO module NPIV proxy gateway, you cannot apply an FCoE map on fabric-facing FC
ports and server-facing Ethernet ports.
After you apply an FCoE map on an FC interface, when the port is enabled (no shutdown), the NPIV proxy
gateway starts sending FIP multicast advertisements on behalf of the FC port to downstream servers in order to
advertise the availability of a new FCF port on the FCoE VLAN.
To remove an FCoE map from an FC interface, enter the no fabric map-name command in Interface
conguration mode.
Related Commands
fcoe-map — creates an FCoE map which contains the parameters used in the communication between servers
and a SAN fabric.
show fcoe-map — displays the Fibre Channel and FCoE conguration parameters in FCoE maps.
fabric-id vlan
In an FCoE map, congure the association between the dedicated VLAN used to carry FCoE trac between servers and a SAN, and the
fabric where the desired storage arrays are installed.
Syntax
fabric-id fabric-num vlan vlan-id
Parameters
fabric-id fabric-num Enter a fabric ID number that is the same as the ID number of the dedicated VLAN used
to carry FCoE storage trac to the fabric specied in the FCoE map. You can enter a
fabric ID in the range 1–4094.
vlanvlan-id Enter the ID number of the dedicated VLAN used to carry FCoE storage trac between
servers and a SAN fabric and specied with the vlan command in the FCoE map.
Defaults None
Command Modes FCOE MAP
Supported Modes Full–Switch
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.
Usage Information
In the fabric-id vlan command, the fabric and VLAN ID numbers must be the same.
In each FCoE map, the fabric ID, FC-MAP value, and FCoE VLAN parameters must be unique.
To remove a fabric-VLAN association from an FCoE map, enter the no fabric-id vlan command.
