Command Remarks
1. Enter system view.
system-view N/A
2. Create a VFC interface and
enter its view.
interface vfc interface-number N/A
3. Configure the VFC interface
mode.
fc mode { e | f | np }
By default, a VFC interface operates
in F mode.
• When an FC switch operates in
FCF mode, VFC interfaces support
E and F modes.
• When an FC switch operates in
NPV mode, FC interfaces support
F and NP modes.
4. Bind the VFC interface to the
specified Ethernet interface.
bind interface interface-type
interface-number [ mac
mac-address ]
By default, no Ethernet interface is
bound to a VFC interface.
The VFC interface sends and receives
packets through the Ethernet interface
bound to it.
5. Add the VFC interface to the
specified VSAN as a trunk
port.
port trunk vsan vsan-id
By default, a VFC interface does not
belong to any VSAN as a trunk port.
6. (Optional.) Configure a
description for the VFC
interface.
description text
By default, the description of an
interface is Interface name Interface,
for example, Vfc1 Interface.
7. (Optional.) Configure the
expected bandwidth of the
interface.
bandwidth bandwidth-value
By default, the expected bandwidth
(in kbps) is the interface baud rate
divided by 1000.
