7.2.16.6 fip-snooping

The FIP snooping function is disabled by default. Only after enabling it, are the FIP related CLIs under
VLAN and interface mode visible. The FIP-

snoop process also starts after the “fip-snooping” command

is enabled. Once the feature is enabled, the FIP-snoop packets and FCoE packets are dropped, unless
explicitly enabled on a per-VLAN basis. If FIP snooping is enabled, all the FIP frames are snooped and
security ACLs are added. FCoE traffic is blocked on all ports until the device re-initializes with FIP. If the
feature is disabled, snooping is removed and all programmed ACLs and internal data are cleaned up.
