Defaults None
Command Modes FCOE MAP
Command
History
Version 9.0(1.3) Introduced on the S5000.
Usage
Information
The FC-MAP value you enter must match the FC-MAP value used by an FC switch or FCoE forwarder
(FCF) in the fabric. An FC switch accepts only FCoE traffic that uses the correct FC-MAP value.
The FC-MAP value is used to generate the fabric-provided MAC address (FP-MAC). The FPMA is used
by servers to transmit FCoE traffic to the fabric. An FC-MAP can be associated with only one FCoE
VLAN and vice versa.
In an FCoE map, the FC-MAP value, fabric ID, and FCoE VLAN parameters must be unique.
To remove a configured FC-MAP value from an FCoE map, enter the no fc-map command.
