FIP Snooping | 383
Figure 17-11.  Configuration Example: FIP Snooping on an S4810 Switch 
In Figure 17-11, DCBX and PFC are enabled on the FIP snooping bridge and on the FCF ToR switch. On 
the FIP snooping bridge, DCBX is configured as follows:
• A server-facing port is configured for DCBX in an auto-downstream role.
• An FCF-facing port is configured for DCBX in an auto-upstream or configuration-source role.
The DCBX configuration on the FCF-facing port is detected by the server-facing port and the DCB PFC 
configuration on both ports is synchronized. For more information about how to configure DCBX and PFC 
on a port, refer to Data Center Bridging (DCB).
Figure 17-12 shows how to configure FIP snooping on FCoE VLAN 10, on an FCF-facing port (0/50), on 
an ENode server-facing port (0/1), and to configure the FIP snooping ports as tagged members of the FCoE 
VLAN enabled for FIP snooping.
