Adding an FCIP circuit
When adding a new FCIP tunnel, you can add an FCIP circuit by selecting the Add button to the right
of the Circuits properties table on the Add FCIP Tunnel dialog box (
Figure 432 on page 959). For 8
Gbps platforms, you can add multiple FCIP circuits to the tunnel with this button.
You can add circuits to existing FCIP tunnels through the Edit FCIP Tunnel dialog box. To display this
dialog box, right-click a tunnel on the FCIP Tunnels dialog box and select Edit Tunnel or select a
tunnel and click the Edit button. For details, refer to
“Configuring an FCIP tunnel” on page 958.

blade:
-
1 Gbps mode - Ports ge0 through ge9

-
Dual mode - Ports ge0 through ge9 and xge0
