2. Apply the DCB map on a downstream (server-facing) Ethernet port:
Dell(config)# interface tengigabitethernet 0/1
Dell(config-if-te-0/0)#dcb-map SAN_DCB_MAP
3. Create the dedicated VLAN to be used for FCoE traffic:
Dell(conf)#interface vlan 1002
4. Configure an FCoE map to be applied on downstream (server-facing) Ethernet and upstream (core-facing) FC ports:
Dell(config)# fcoe-map SAN_FABRIC_A
Dell(config-fcoe-name)# fabric-id 1002 vlan 1002
Dell(config-fcoe-name)# description "SAN_FABRIC_A"
Dell(config-fcoe-name)# fc-map 0efc00
Dell(config-fcoe-name)# keepalive
Dell(config-fcoe-name)# fcf-priority 128
Dell(config-fcoe-name)# fka-adv-period 8
5. Enable an upstream FC port:
Dell(config)# interface fibrechannel 0/9
Dell(config-if-fc-0)# no shutdown
6. Enable a downstream Ethernet port:
Dell(config)#interface tengigabitEthernet 0/1
Dell(conf-if-te-0)# no shutdown
Displaying NPIV Proxy Gateway Information
To display information on the NPG operation, use the show commands in the following table:
Table 106. Displaying NPIV Proxy Gateway Information
Command Description
show interfaces status
Displays the operational status of Ethernet and Fibre Channel interfaces on
the Aggregator with the NPG.
NOTE: Although the show interface status command displays the Fiber
Channel (FC) interfaces with the abbreviated label of 'Fc' in the output,
if you attempt to specify a FC interface by using the interface
fc command in the CLI interface, an error message is displayed. You
must configure FC interfaces by using the interface fi command in
CONFIGURATION mode.
show fcoe-map [brief | map-name]
Displays the Fibre Channel and FCoE configuration parameters in FCoE
maps. Enter the brief keyword to display an overview of currently
configured FCoE maps.
Enter the name of an FCoE map to display the FC and FCoE parameters
configured in the map to be applied on the Aggregator with the FC ports.
show qos dcb-map map-name
Displays configuration parameters in a specified DCB map.
