5. Enable an upstream FC port.
Dell(config)# interface fibrechannel 0/0
Dell(config-if-fc-0)# no shutdown
Dell (config-if-fc-0)# fabric SAN_FABRIC_A
6. Enable a downstream Ethernet port.
Dell(config)#interface tengigabitEthernet 0/0
Dell(conf-if-te-0)# no shutdown
Dell (conif-if-te-0)# fcoe-map SAN_FABRIC_A
Displaying NPIV Proxy Gateway Information
To display NPG operation information, use the following show commands.
Command
Command Mode
Show interfaces status

Fibre Channel interfaces.
show fcoe-map [brief | map-name]
Displays the FC and FCoE configuration
parameters in FCoE maps.
show qos dcb-map map-name
Displays the configuration parameters in a
specified DCB map.
show npiv devices [brief]
Displays information on FCoE and FC devices
currently logged in to the NPG.
show fc switch
Displays the FC mode of operation and worldwide
node (WWN) name.

Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP)
Link layer discovery protocol (LLDP) advertises connectivity and management from the local station to
the adjacent stations on an IEEE 802 LAN.
LLDP facilitates multi-vendor interoperability by using standard management tools to discover and make
available a physical topology for network management. The Dell Networking operating software
implementation of LLDP is based on IEEE standard 801.1ab.
The starting point for using LLDP is invoking LLDP with the protocol lldp command in either
CONFIGURATION or INTERFACE mode.
The information LLDP distributes is stored by its recipients in a standard management information base
(MIB). You can access the information by a network management system through a management
protocol such as simple network management protocol (SNMP).
An Aggregator auto-configures to support the link layer discovery protocol (LLDP) for the auto-discovery
of network devices. You can use CLI commands to display acquired LLDP information, clear LLDP
counters, and debug LACP operation.
