Configuring an FCIP tunnel

The dialog box displays a tree structure of all FCIP-capable switches in the discovered fabrics,
Extension Switches, and configured tunnels. Details such as number of circuits configured for
tunnels, connected switches in tunnels, and tunnel status display in the right columns.
2. To add an FCIP tunnel and circuits between switches, follow these steps:
a. Select the switch you want to configure under the Products tree.
b. Click the Add button, or right-click on the switch and select Add Tunnel.
The Add FCIP Tunnel dialog box is displayed ( Figure 432 ). The name of the switch you
selected is displayed in the Switch field under Switch One. This dialog box allows you to
configure settings for both switches on either end of the tunnel.
A Circuits properties table displays at the bottom of the dialog box. For 8 Gbps platforms,
this may contain columns for multiple circuits. Actual as well as cached circuits display.
You can configure circuits using the Add, Edit, Delete, Enable, and Disable buttons to the
right of the table. For 4 Gbps platforms, the Delete, Enable, and Disable buttons do not
display. In addition, the Edit operation is only supported for cached circuits.
