brocade-port-profile
Description
Provides a data model for creating and activating port-profiles and for mapping a port-profile to
MAC addresses.
A port-profile is a collection of network policies to be applied to network traffic on a given port.
Automatic Migration of Port Profiles (AMPP) provides fabric-wide configuration of Ethernet policies
and achieves per-port-profile forwarding and enables network level features to support VM mobility.
With Server Virtualization, a VM can move from one physical server to another. When such a move
occurs, it is ideal for the access layer to apply the network policies on the VM transparently. The
Brocade Virtual Access Layer (VAL) service provides such automatic migration of the port-profile on
a given VM MAC address transparently.
A port-profile typically comprises the subprofiles listed in
.
VM MAC addresses are added to a port-profile to specify all the network attributes for a server port.
A port-profile is activated on a server port as part of regular MAC learning. VM MAC to port-profile
association is specified using the brocade-port-profile management module. The actual
association in hardware is applied when the MAC address is learned.
This module also defines port-profile-domain, which is a logical-grouping of port profiles. Port
profile domain can be viewed as a 4k VLAN space. Brocade switch can contain multiple port profile
domains extending the traditional 4k VLAN space to support multi tenancy.

TABLE 4
AMPP subprofiles
Subprofile
Description
VLAN profile
VLAN membership and filtering rules. VLAN profile also provides a way to classify the VLAN
based on MAC, MAC group, and C-Tag.
QoS profile
QoS policies.
FCoE profile
FCoE map configuration.
Security profile
Security rules needed for the server port, typically enabling 802.1x with EAP TLV extensions
for VM Mobility, and MAC-based standard and extended ACLs.
