Deploying FCoE (FIP Snooping) on Dell Force 10 MXL
25
Example of show zoneset active command
Figure 18.
NOTE
: A key item to understand in looking at these validation/debug commands is that both
configurations need to be inplace for many of these commands to show the expected results.
In other words if the Cisco Nexus 5548 has been configured based on the CLI examples in this
document but the Dell Force10 MXL has not been configured many of the results shown here
will not match. The storage device and SAN switches will also need to be configured if using
NPV mode.
Basic validation for the Force10 MXL configuration
With all cables in place between the switches, the FC/FCoE SAN configured, and all switch settings
configured use the following commands to validate your configuration.
First check general status of the ports, and links by using:
show interfaces status
“show interfaces status” results
Figure 19.
On the Force10 MXL the fip-snooping configuration can be checked by using:
show fip-snooping config
.
This will show that the FIP-snooping feature is enabled and global
configuration is set. It will also display the current default or configured FC-MAP.
