NPIV Proxy Gateway for FC Flex IO Modules
The N-port identifier virtualization (NPIV) Proxy Gateway (NPG) feature provides FCoE-FC bridging
capability on the M I/O Aggregator and MXL 10/40GbE Switch with the FC Flex IO module switch,
allowing server CNAs to communicate with SAN fabrics over the M I/O Aggregator and MXL 10/40GbE
Switch with the FC Flex IO module.
To configure the M I/O Aggregator and MXL 10/40GbE Switch with the FC Flex IO module to operate as
an NPIV proxy gateway, use the following commands:
show fcoe-map
Display the Fibre Channel and FCoE configuration parameters in FCoE maps.
M I/O Aggregator and MXL 10/40GbE Switch with the FC Flex IO module
Syntax
show fcoe-map [brief | map-name]
Parameters
brief Displays an overview of currently configured FCoE maps.
map-name Displays the FC and FCoE configuration parameters in a
specified FCoE map. The FCoE map is applied on Ethernet
(FCoE) and FC ports to transmit FC storage traffic to a
specified fabric.

Command
History
Version 9.3(0.0) Introduced on the M I/O Aggregator and MXL 10/40GbE
Switch with the FC Flex IO module.
Usage
Information
Use the show fcoe-map command to display the FC and FCoE parameters used
to configure server-facing Ethernet (FCoE) and fabric-facing FC ports in all FCoE
maps on an M I/O Aggregator and MXL 10/40GbE Switch with the FC Flex IO
module NPIV proxy gateway.
In each FCoE map, the values for the fabric ID and FC-MAP that identify the SAN
fabric to which FC storage traffic is sent, and the FCoE VLAN to be used must be
unique.
An FCoE map is used to identify the SAN fabric to which FCoE storage traffic is sent
and to virtualize M I/O Aggregator and MXL 10/40GbE Switch with the FC Flex IO
module FC ports so that they appear to downstream server CNA ports as FCoE
Forwarder (FCF) ports on an FCoE network.
The following table describes the show fcoe-map brief output shown in the
example below.
