9 FIP Snooping Overview In a converged Ethernet network, an Aggregator can operate as an intermediate Ethernet bridge to snoop on Fibre Channel over Ethernet Initialization Protocol (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 ACLs to permit only authorized FCoE traffic to be transmitted between an FCoE end-device and an FCF. FIP Snooping Commands The following Dell Force10 operating software (FTOS) commands are used to configure and verify the FIP snooping feature: • clear fip-snooping statistics • debug fip-snooping • show fip-snooping config • show fip-snooping enode • show fip-snooping fcf • show fip-snooping sessions • show fip-snooping statistics • show fip-snooping system clear fip-snooping statistics Clear the statistics on the FIP packets snooped on all VLANs, a specified VLAN, or a specified port interface. Syntax clear fip-snooping statistics [interface vlan vlan-id | interface port-type port/slot | interface port-channel port-channel-number] Parameters vlan-id port-type port/slot port-channelnumber] Enter the VLAN ID of the FIP packet statistics to be cleared. Enter the port-type and slot number of the FIP packet statistics to be cleared. Enter the port channel number of the FIP packet statistics to be cleared.
