Virtual Connect modules 243
Column Description
Connected To Displays the system name or management IP address of the FCoE-capable
switch that this uplink port is connected to on the other end. The remote
device must support LLDP to display this information.
FCF Name FCF switch node WWN name associated with the FCoE VLAN. The name
is provided by the FCF in snooped FIP messages.
Fabric Name The fabric name associated with the FCoE VLAN. It is provided by the FCF
in snooped FIP messages.
The following table describes the columns within the Uplink Port FCF MAC Addresses table.
Column Description
LAG ID
Identifies the group of ports that have been aggregated together to form
an 802.3ad Link Aggregation Group. This ID is unique only within a
single VC-Enet module, meaning the same LAG ID can be used on
different VC-Enet modules, but it is only meaningful for ports within the
same VC-Enet module.
VLAN ID The VLAN ID associated with the list of FCF MAC Addresses
FCF MAC Address In FCF mode, typically a single FCF MAC address is advertised per
switch. In NPV mode, typically each port on the FCF switch that is part of
the LAG advertises its own FCF MAC address.
The following table describes the columns within the Downlink Port Sessions table.
Column Description
Port The server downlink port corresponding to the FCoE connection
associated with the FCoE network
MAC Address MAC address of the server downlink port corresponding to the FCoE
connection
LAG ID LAG ID for the uplink ports providing FCoE connectivity for this server
downlink port
VLAN ID VLAN ID associated with the FCoE network assigned to the server
downlink port
Network
Network name associated with the FCoE network
Profile Descriptive name for the server profile that associates server downlink
port, FCoE connection and FCoE network
FCF MAC Address
In FCF mode, typically a single FCF MAC address is advertised per
switch. In NPV mode, typically each port on the FCF switch that is part of
the LAG advertises its own FCF MAC address.
FCoE MAC Address Fabric Provided MAC Address (FPMA). This MAC address is used by the
server CNA to log into the SAN Fabric represented by the FCoE network.
The FCoE MAC is constructed from FC-MAP and FC_ID, both provided by
the FCF.
FC ID The FC_ID is a 24 bit field assigned by the Fabric services on the FCF to
each initiator and used to route frames through the FC network.
FCF Name FCF switch node WWN name associated with the FCoE network. The
name in snooped FIP messages is provided by the FCF.
