NE2552E Application Guide for ENOS 8.4
The FCoE Topology
In
an
end
‐
to
‐
end
Fibre
Channel
network,
switches
and
end
devices
generally
establish
trusted,
point
‐
to
‐
point
links.
Fibre
Channel
switches
validate
end
devices,
enforce
zoning
configurations
and
device
addressing,
and
prevent
certain
types
of
errors
and
attacks
on
the
network.
In
a
converged
multi
‐
hop
FCoE
network
where
Fibre
Channel
devices
are
bridged
to
Ethernet
devices,
the
direct
point
‐
to
‐
point
QoS
capabilities
normally
provided
by
the
Fibre
Channel
fabric
may
be
lost
in
the
transition
between
the
different
network
types.
The
NE2552E
provides
a
solution
to
overcome
this.
Figure 25.
A
Mixed
Fibre
Channel
and
FCoE
Network
In
the
Fibre
Channel
network
is
connected
to
the
FCoE
network
through
an
FCoE
Forwarder
(FCF)
bridge.
The
FCF
acts
as
a
Fibre
Channel
gateway
to
and
from
the
multi
‐
hop
FCoE
network.
For
the
FCoE
portion
of
the
network,
the
FCF
is
connected
to
the
FCoE
‐
enabled
NE2552E,
which
is
internally
connected
to
a
blade
server
(running
Fibre
Channel
applications)
through
an
FCoE
‐
enabled
Converged
Network
Adapter
(CNA)
known
in
Fibre
Channel
as
an
Ethernet
Node
(ENode).
Note:
The
figure
also
shows
a
non
‐
FCoE
LAN
server
connected
to
the
NE2552E
using
a
CNA.
This
allows
the
LAN
server
to
take
advantage
of
some
CEE
features
that
are
useful
even
outside
of
an
FCoE
environment.
To
block
undesired
or
unvalidated
traffic
on
FCoE
links
that
exists
outside
the
regular
Fibre
Channel
topology,
Ethernet
ports
used
in
FCoE
are
configured
with
Access
Control
Lists
(ACLs)
that
are
narrowly
tailored
to
permit
expected
FCoE
traffic
to
and
from
confirmed
FCFs
and
ENodes,
and
deny
all
other
FCoE
or
FIP
traffic.
This
ensures
that
all
FCoE
traffic
to
and
from
the
ENode
passes
through
the
FCF.
Because
manual
ACL
configuration
is
an
administratively
complex
task,
the
NE2552E
can
automatically
and
dynamically
configure
the
ACLs
required
for
use
with
FCoE.
Using
FCoE
Initialization
Protocol
(FIP)
snooping
(see
the
NE2552E
examines
the
FIP
frames
normally
exchanged
between
the
FCF
and
ENodes
to
determine
information
about
connected
FCoE
devices.
This
information
is
used
to
automatically
determine
the
appropriate
ACLs
required
to
block
certain
types
of
undesired
or
unvalidated
FCoE
traffic.
Automatic
FCoE
‐
related
ACLs
are
independent
from
ACLs
used
for
typical
Ethernet
purposes.
