Port-based
ACLs
These ACLs are applied on all three port modes: on ports directly connected to an
FCF, server-facing ENode ports, and bridge-to-bridge links. Port-based ACLs take
precedence over global ACLs.
FCoE-
generated
ACLs
These take precedence over user-configured ACLs. A user-configured ACL entry
cannot deny FCoE and FIP snooping frames.
The following illustration shows an S5000 switch enabled for FCoE transit and used as a FIP snooping
bridge in a converged Ethernet network. The top-of-rack (ToR) switch operates as an FCF for FCoE
traffic. Converged LAN and SAN traffic is transmitted between the ToR switch and an S5000 switch. The
switch operates as a lossless FIP snooping bridge to transparently forward FCoE frames between the
ENode servers and the FCF switch.
