Configuring FCIP
•
the local connection points (IP address and TCP port number)
•
the behavior of the underlying TCP connections for all FCIP links that use this profile
The FCIP profile’s local IP address determines the Gigabit Ethernet port where the FCIP links
terminates.

FCIP Profile and FCIP Links
FCIP Interface
The FCIP interface is the local end point of the FCIP link and a VE port interface. All the FCIP and E
port parameters are configured in context to the FCIP interface.
The FCIP parameters consist of the following:
•
The FCIP profile determines which Gigabit Ethernet port initiates the FCIP links and defines the
TCP connection behavior.
•
Peer information.
•
Number of TCP connections for the FCIP link.
•
E port parameters—Trunking mode and trunk allowed VSAN list.
Enabling FCIP
To begin configuring the FCIP feature, you must explicitly enable FCIP on the required switches in the
fabric. By default, this feature is disabled in all switches in the Cisco MDS 9000 Family.
The configuration and verification commands for the F IP feature are only available when FCIP is
enabled on a switch. When you disable this feature, all related configurations are automatically
discarded.
Basic FCIP Configuration
To configure a FCIP link, follow these steps on both switches.
Step 1
Configure the Gigabit Ethernet interface.
Step 2
Create a FCIP profile, assign the Gigabit Ethernet interface’s IP address to the profile.
Step 3
Create a FCIP interface, assign the profile to the interface.
