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.
Field
Description
Fabric-Name
Name of a SAN fabric.
Fabric ID
The ID number of the SAN fabric to which FC traffic is
forwarded.
VLAN ID
The dedicated FCoE VLAN used to transport FCoE storage
traffic between servers and a fabric over the NPIV proxy
gateway. The configured VLAN ID must be the same as the
fabric ID.
FC-MAP
FCoE MAC address-prefix value - The unique 24-bit MAC
address prefix that identifies a fabric.
FCF Priority
The priority used by a server to select an upstream FCoE
forwarder.
Config-State
Indicates whether the configured FCoE and FC parameters
in the FCoE map are valid: Active (all mandatory FCoE and
FC parameters are correctly configured) or Incomplete
(either the FC-MAP value, fabric ID, or VLAN ID are not
correctly configured).
Oper-State
Operational status of link to the fabric: Up (link is up and
transmitting FC traffic), Down (link is down and not
transmitting FC traffic), Link-wait (link is up and waiting for
FLOGI to complete on peer FC port), or Removed (port has
been shut down).
The following table describes the
show fcoe-map
map-name
output shown in
the example below.
Field
Description
Fabric-Name
Name of a SAN fabric.
Fabric ID
The ID number of the SAN fabric to which FC traffic is
forwarded.
VLAN ID
The dedicated FCoE VLAN used to transport FCoE storage
traffic between servers and a fabric over the NPIV proxy
gateway. The configured VLAN ID must be the same as the
fabric ID.
VLAN priority
FCoE traffic uses VLAN priority 3. (This setting is not user-
