portCfg ve_port fciptunnel Specifies the number of the VE_Port associated with the tunnel. The VE_Ports are numbered 24-43 on the Brocade 7840, 16-35 on the Brocade SX6, and 12-31 on the Brocade FX8-24. Creates, modifies, or deletes an extension tunnel. Note the following port mapping rules: DP0 ports DP1 ports 7840 24-33 34-43 SX6 16-25 26-35 FX8-24 22-31 (xge0) 12-21 (ge0-ge9,xge1) The valid VE ports on the Brocade 7840 switch are VE_Ports 24-43. In 10VE mode, only VE_Ports 24-28 and VE_Ports 34-38 are supported. In 20VE mode all VE ports are supported. The syntax for portcfg fciptunnel is as follows: portcfg fciptunnel [slot/]ve_port options [tunnel_arguments] [circuit_arguments] The following options are supported with fciptunnel: create [tunnel_arguments][circuit_arguments] Creates an extension tunnel and, optionally a single default circuit. If no circuit arguments are specified, no extension circuit will be created. While it is possible to create a tunnel without a default circuit, it is an unlikely scenario (for example, for configuration staging purposes). In most cases, you will create a tunnel with at least one configured circuit. In this case, you must specify a remote and local IP address for the circuit as well as a committed rate (or alternately, a minimum and maximum committed rate) to configure the default circuit. The default circuit created with the tunnel is automatically assigned the circuit ID 0. You can modify the default circuit with the fciptunnel modify command. To add additional circuits to an existing tunnel, use the fcipcircuit create command. modify [tunnel_arguments][circuit_arguments] Modifies the properties of an existing extension tunnel. To modify a tunnel, you must specify at least one of the tunnel or circuit parameters for the command to be effective. Any circuit attribute you change with the fciptunnel modify command affects only the circuit 0. All other circuits remain unchanged. To modify a circuit other than circuit 0, you must use the fcipcircuit modify command. In order to create a default circuit 0 with the tunnel, you must at least specify the following circuit arguments with fciptunnel create: -D | --remote-ip-address remote_ip_address Specifies the IP address for the remote end of the extension circuit. -S | --local-ip-address local_ip_address Specifies the IP address for the local end of the extension circuit.
