NPIV Proxy Gateway
The N-port identier virtualization (NPIV) Proxy Gateway (NPG) feature provides FCoE-FC bridging capability on the S5000 switch,
allowing server CNAs to communicate with SAN fabrics over the S5000.
To congure the S5000 to operate as an NPIV proxy gateway, use the following commands:
dcb-map
Create a DCB map to congure priority ow control (PFC) and enhanced transmission selection (ETS) on Ethernet ports that
support converged Ethernet trac. Apply the DCB map to an Ethernet interface.
S5000
Syntax
dcb-map map-name
Parameters
map-name Enter a DCB map name. The maximum number of alphanumeric characters is 32.
Defaults None. There are no pre-congured PFC and ETS settings on S5000 Ethernet interfaces.
Command Modes CONFIGURATION
INTERFACE
Command History
Version 9.0(1.3) Introduced on the S5000.
Usage Information
A DCB map is a template used to congure DCB parameters and apply them on converged Ethernet
interfaces. DCB parameters include priority-based ow control (PFC) and enhanced trac selection (ETS).
To display the PFC and ETS settings in DCB maps, enter the show qos dcb-map command.
Use the dcb-map command to create a DCB map to specify PFC and ETS settings and apply it on Ethernet
ports. After you apply a DCB map to an interface, the PFC and ETS settings in the map are applied when
the Ethernet port is enabled. DCBx is enabled on Ethernet ports by default.
The dcb-map command is supported only on physical Ethernet interfaces.
To remove a DCB map from an interface, enter the no dcb-map map-name command in Interface
conguration mode.
Related Commands
