Administrator Guide

● You can configure multiple FCF-trusted interfaces in a VLAN.
● When you disable FIP snooping:
○ ACLs are not installed, FIP and FCoE traffic is not blocked, and FIP packets are not processed.
○ The existing per-VLAN and FIP snooping configuration is stored. The configuration is re-applied the next time you enable
the FIP snooping feature.
● You must apply the CAM-ACL space for the FCoE region before enabling the FIP-Snooping feature. If you do not apply
CAM-ACL space, the following error message is displayed:
DellEMC(conf)#feature fip-snooping
% Error: Cannot enable fip snooping. CAM Region not allocated for Fcoe.
DellEMC(conf)#
NOTE: Manually add the CAM-ACL space to the FCoE region as it is not applied by default.
To support FIP-Snooping and set CAM-ACL, usecam-acl l2acl 4 ipv4acl 4 ipv6acl 0 ipv4qos 2 l2qos 1
l2pt 0 ipmacacl 0 vman-qos 0 ecfmacl 0 fcoeacl 2 command.

Enabling the FCoE Transit Feature
The following sections describe how to enable FCoE transit.
NOTE: FCoE transit is disabled by default. To enable this feature, you must follow the Configure FIP Snooping.
As soon as you enable the FCoE transit feature on a switch-bridge, existing VLAN-specific and FIP snooping configurations are
applied. The FCoE database is populated when the switch connects to a converged network adapter (CNA) or FCF port and
compatible DCB configurations are synchronized. By default, all FCoE and FIP frames are dropped unless specifically permitted
by existing FIP snooping-generated ACLs. You can reconfigure any of the FIP snooping settings.
If you disable FCoE transit, FIP and FCoE traffic are handled as normal Ethernet frames and no FIP snooping ACLs are
generated. The VLAN-specific and FIP snooping configuration is disabled and stored until you re-enable FCoE transit and the
configurations are re-applied.
Enable FIP Snooping on VLANs
You can enable FIP snooping globally on a switch on all VLANs or on a specified VLAN.
When you enable FIP snooping on VLANs:
