NPIV Proxy Gateway
The N-port identifier virtualization (NPIV) Proxy Gateway (NPG) feature provides FCoE-FC bridging capability on the
S5000 switch, allowing server CNAs to communicate with SAN fabrics over the S5000.
To configure the S5000 to operate as an NPIV proxy gateway, use the following commands:
dcb-map
Create a DCB map to configure priority flow control (PFC) and enhanced transmission selection (ETS) on Ethernet ports
that support converged Ethernet traffic. Apply the DCB map to an Ethernet interface.
S5000
Syntax
dcb-map map-name
Parameters
map-name Enter a DCB map name. The maximum number of alphanumeric
characters is 32.
Defaults None. There are no pre-configured PFC and ETS settings on S5000 Ethernet interfaces.
Command Modes CONFIGURATION
INTERFACE
Command History
Version 9.0(1.3) Introduced on the S5000.
Usage
Information
A DCB map is a template used to configure DCB parameters and apply them on converged
Ethernet interfaces. DCB parameters include priority-based flow control (PFC) and enhanced
traffic selection (ETS).
To display the PFC and ETS settings in DCB maps, enter the show qos dcb-map command.
Use the dcb-map command to create a DCB map to specify PFC and ETS settings and apply it
on Ethernet ports. After you apply a DCB map to an interface, the PFC and ETS settings in the
map are applied when the Ethernet port is enabled. DCBx is enabled on Ethernet ports by
default.
The dcb-map command is supported only on physical Ethernet interfaces.
To remove a DCB map from an interface, enter the no dcb-map map-name command in
Interface configuration mode.
