Enable FIP Snooping on VLANs

You can enable FIP snooping globally on a switch on all VLANs or on a specified VLAN.

When you enable FIP snooping on VLANs:
  • FIP frames are allowed to pass through the switch on the enabled VLANs and are processed to generate FIP snooping ACLs.
  • FCoE traffic is allowed on VLANs only after a successful virtual-link initialization (fabric login FLOGI) between an ENode and an FCF. All other FCoE traffic is dropped.
  • You must configure at least one interface for FCF (FIP snooping bridge-bridge) mode on a FIP snooping-enabled VLAN. You can configure multiple FCF trusted interfaces in a VLAN.
  • A maximum of eight VLANS are supported for FIP snooping on the switch. When enabled globally, FIP snooping processes FIP packets in traffic only from the first eight incoming VLANs. When enabled on a per-VLAN basis, FIP snooping is supported on up to eight VLANs.
