FIP Snooping
To enable the FCoE Transit feature and congure FIP snooping, use the following Dell Networking Operating System commands on
the S4820T platform.
In a converged Ethernet network, a switch can operate as an intermediate Ethernet bridge to snoop on FIP packets during the login
process on Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) forwarders (FCFs). Acting as a transit FIP snooping bridge, the switch uses
dynamically created access control lists (ACLs) to permit only authorized FCoE trac to transmit between an FCoE end-device and
an FCF.
clear p-snooping database interface vlan
Clear FIP snooping information on a VLAN for a specied FCoE MAC address, ENode MAC address, or FCF MAC address, and
remove the corresponding ACLs FIP snooping generates.
