bind
Used to create a persistent binding between the logical FCoE port and the ten/forty gigabit or LAG
port.
Synopsis bind {fortygigabitethernet rbridge-id/slot/port| port-channel number |
tengigabitethernet rbridge-id/slot/port || mac-address address}
Operands fortygigabitethernet rbridge-id/slot/port
Specifies a valid 10-gigabit Ethernet interface.
port-channel number Specifies a port-channel interface.
tengigabitethernet rbridge-id/slot/port

Command Modes Interface subtype configuration mode
Description Use this command to create a persistent binding between the logical FCoE port and the ten/forty
gigabitethernet or LAG port. This will be stored in the configuration and retained across reboots.
Usage Guidelines When the FCoE logical port is automatically bound to a TE/FO LAG port, it is referred as dynamic
binding. This binding is valid only till the FLOGI session is valid. The binding is automatically
removed when CNA logs out.
ATTENTION
Only one type of binding can be used for each physical port, so the ten/forty gigabitethernet or
LAG (MAC) binding configurations overwrite each other.
Examples
switch(config)# interface fcoe 1/1/55
switch(config-Fcoe-1/1/55)# bind tengigabitethernet 1/0/1
switch(config)# interface fcoe 1/1/56
switch(config-Fcoe-1/1/56)# bind mac-address 00:05:1e:c5:96:a4
