If you are familiar with the FCoE CN switch vendor’s FC switches, then you are familiar with the
commands required to configure that portion of the FCoE CN switch setup. The procedures in this
section are intended as a quick-start guide to configuring the FCoE ports on an FCoE CN switch to
access the FC ports on the FCoE CN switch and other attached FC switches.
2408 FCoE Converged Network Switch and DC SAN Director Switch 10/24
FCoE Blade quick setup
This procedure is intended for users who are familiar with Brocade FC switches and have experience
merging B-series FC switches into an existing FC fabric. Use this procedure to enable servers with
CNAs attached to the 2408 FCoE Converged Network Switch or the DC SAN Director Switch 10/24
FCoE Blade to access devices on the attached B-series FC fabric.
IMPORTANT:
If you are not familiar with Brocade FC switches or you do not have experience merging B-series FC
switches into an existing FC fabric, use the detailed instructions found in the switch user guide to set
up your switch.
1. Configure LLDP for FCoE (common to all CEE ports).
switch:admin> cmsh
switch# enable
switch# config terminal
switch(config)# protocol lldp
switch(conf-lldp)# advertise dcbx-fcoe-app-tlv
switch(conf-lldp)# advertise dcbx-fcoe-logical-link-tlv
switch(conf-lldp)# exit
2. Create a CEE map to carry LAN traffic (60%) and SAN traffic (40%) (common to all CEE ports).
switch(config)# cee-map default
switch(conf-ceemap)# priority-group-table 1 weight 40 pfc
switch(conf-ceemap)# priority-group-table 2 weight 60
switch(conf-ceemap)# priority-table 2 2 2 1 2 2 2 2
switch(conf-ceemap)# exit
3. Create an FCoE VLAN for traffic to and from the FC fabric (required for FCoE).
switch(config)# vlan classifier rule 1 proto fcoe encap ethv2
switch(config)# vlan classifier rule 2 proto fip encap ethv2
switch(config)# vlan classifier group 1 add rule 1
switch(config)# vlan classifier group 1 add rule 2
switch(config)# interface vlan
5
(Can be any VLAN number other than 1)
switch(conf-if-vl-5)# fcf forward
switch(conf-if-vl-5)# exit
