fc-map
In an FCoE map, configure the FCoE mapped address prefix (FC-MAP) value which is used to identify FCoE traffic transmitted
on the FCoE VLAN for the specified fabric.
Syntax
fc—map fc-map-value
Parameters
fc-map-value Enter the unique MAC address prefix used by a SAN fabric.
The range of FC-MAP values is from 0EFC00 to 0EFCFF.
Defaults None
Command Modes FCoE MAP
Supported Modes Programmable-Mux (PMUX)
Full–Switch

History
Version Description
9.9(0.0) Introduced on the FN IOM.
9.6(0.0) Supported on the FN 2210S Aggregator.
9.3(0.0) Introduced on the M I/O Aggregator and MXL 10/40GbE Switch with the FC Flex
IO module.
Usage
Information
The FC-MAP value you enter must match the FC-MAP value used by an FC switch or FCoE forwarder
(FCF) in the fabric. An FCF switch accepts only FCoE traffic that uses the correct FC-MAP value.
The FC-MAP value is used to generate the fabric-provided MAC address (FP-MAC). The FPMA is used
by servers to transmit FCoE traffic to the fabric. An FC-MAP can be associated with only one FCoE
VLAN and vice versa.
In an FCoE map, the FC-MAP value, fabric ID, and FCoE VLAN parameters must be unique.
To remove a configured FC-MAP value from an FCoE map, enter the no fc-map command.
