fabric-id vlan
In an FCoE map, configure the association between the dedicated VLAN used to carry FCoE traffic 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 traffic to the fabric specified in the FCoE map. You can
enter a fabric ID in the range 1–4094.
vlan vlan-id Enter the ID number of the dedicated VLAN used to carry FCoE storage traffic

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.
You must first create a VLAN and then specify the configured VLAN ID in the fabric-id vlan
command. Otherwise, the following error message is displayed.
FTOS(conf-fcoe-f)#fabric-id 10 vlan 10 % Error: Vlan 10 does not exist
