FCoE configuration with NETCONF overview
This chapter provides procedures for assigning a Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) map to port
interfaces or port-channel interfaces, and for retrieving status information about FCoE interfaces
and logins.
For a procedure for configuring an FCoE profile, refer to “Configuring FCoE profiles” on page 249.
Refer to the Network OS Administrator’s Guide for conceptual information about FCoE including:
• An overview of what FCoE is and its purpose
• FCoE end-to-end operations
• How Network OS Layer 2 Ethernet supports FCoE through Layer 2 forwarding, VLAN tagging,
incoming frame classification, congestion control and queueing, access control, trunking, and
flow control
• How the FCoE Initialization Protocol (FIP) works
• How FCoE queueing works
• Configuring FCoE over LAG
• Operational guidelines for applying an FCoE map to a VLAG
• xSTP reconvergence
Through the NETCONF interface, you can perform the following operations on FCoE interfaces:
• Use the RPC to assign an FCoE map to an interface or LAG.
• Use the RPC to validate configuration settings.
• Use the custom RPC to return information about FCoE port interfaces.
• Use the custom RPC to return information about logged in FCoE devices.
NOTE
FCoE parameters are defined in the brocade-fcoe YANG module. For details, refer to the
Network OS YANG Reference Manual.
