Configuring FCoE interfaces

Configuring FCoE interfaces

FCoE maps are used to configure FCoE properties on interfaces. An FCoE map is a placeholder for
an FCoE VLAN and a CEE map. You will assign FCoE maps on to physical interfaces using the
fcoeport command. Once the FCoE map is assigned onto an interface:

The corresponding FCoE VLAN 1002 is applied to the interface.

The corresponding CEE map is applied to the interface.

The FCoE/FIP VLAN classifiers are applied to the interface.

In short, the interface becomes capable of carrying FCoE traffic. The FCoE map can be applied on
an interface only if the FCoE map is complete in all aspects. That is, it should have an FCoE VLAN
and a CEE map associated with it.

NOTE

Brocade does not support non-FCoE traffic over the FCoE VLAN. The FCoE VLAN should not carry any
mixed traffic.

Only a single FCoE map is allowed, which is created automatically with the name “default.” You are
not able to delete or rename this map. By default, the FCoE VLAN associated to the FCoE map is
FCoE VLAN (1002) and the CEE map associated is the default CEE map (also called “default”).

Assigning an FCoE map onto an interface

The FCoE map cannot be edited if it is associated with any interfaces.

The FCoE map can be applied, irrespective of whether or not the interface is in “switchport” mode.
However, the FCoE map cannot be applied on an interface if the same interface already has a CEE
map assigned to it.

To assign the FCoE map onto an interface, perform the following steps.

1. Issue the RPC to configure the / node in the

urn:brocade.com:mgmt:brocade-interface namespace.

2. Under the node, in the leaf element, specify the name of the

interface to which you want to apply the FCoE map.

3. Under the node, specify the node in the

urn:brocade.com:mgmt:brocade-fcoe namespace.

4. Under the node, specify the leaf element, and set its value to

“default”.

The following example applies the default FCoE map to the 1/0/1 interface.
