FCoE Initialization Protocol Snooping
FCoE
Initialization
Protocol
(FIP)
snooping
is
an
FCoE
feature.
In
order
to
enforce
point
‐
to
‐
point
links
for
FCoE
traffic
outside
the
regular
Fibre
Channel
topology,
Ethernet
ports
used
in
FCoE
can
be
automatically
and
dynamically
configured
with
Access
Control
Lists
(ACLs).
Using
FIP
snooping,
the
CN4093
examines
the
FIP
frames
normally
exchanged
between
the
FCF
and
ENodes
to
determine
information
about
connected
FCoE
devices.
This
information
is
used
to
create
narrowly
tailored
ACLs
that
permit
expected
FCoE
traffic
to
and
from
confirmed
Fibre
Channel
nodes,
and
deny
all
other
undesirable
FCoE
or
FIP
traffic.
FIP Snooping Requirements
The
following
are
required
for
implementing
the
FIP
snooping
bridge
feature:
The
CN4093
must
be
connected
to
the
Fibre
Channel
network
through
a
FCF
such
as
a
Lenovo
Rackswitch
G8264CS
,
another
Lenovo
CN4093
10Gb
Converged
Scalable
Switch
or
a
Cisco
Nexus
5000
Series
Switch.
For
each
CN4093
switch
port
participating
in
FCoE,
the
connected
server
must
use
a
FCoE
‐
licensed
Converged
Network
Adapter
(CNA)
and
must
have
the
FCoE
license
enabled
(if
applicable)
on
the
CNA.
CEE
must
be
turned
on
(see
).
When
CEE
is
on,
the
DCBX,
PFC
and
ETS
features
are
enabled
and
configured
with
default
FCoE
settings.
These
features
may
be
reconfigured,
but
must
remain
enabled
for
FCoE
to
function.
FIP
snooping
must
be
turned
on
(see
When
FIP
snooping
is
turned
on,
the
feature
is
enabled
on
all
ports
by
default.
The
administrator
can
disable
FIP
snooping
on
individual
ports
that
do
not
require
FCoE,
but
FIP
snooping
must
remain
enabled
on
all
FCoE
ports
for
FCoE
to
function.
