In Figure 16-11, DCBX and PFC are enabled on the S6000 Switch (FIP snooping bridge) and on the FCF
ToR switch. On the FIP snooping bridge, DCBX is configured as follows:
• A server-facing port is configured for DCBX in an auto-downstream role.
• An FCF-facing port is configured for DCBX in an auto-upstream or configuration-source role.
The DCBX configuration on the FCF-facing port is detected by the server-facing port and the DCB PFC
configuration on both ports is synchronized. For more information about how to configure DCBX and PFC
on a port, refer to Data Center Bridging (DCB).
Figure 16-12 shows how to configure FIP snooping on FCoE VLAN 10, an FCF-facing port (0/50), and an
ENode server-facing port (0/1), and to configure the FIP snooping ports as tagged members of the FCoE
VLAN enabled for FIP snooping.
