Controlling forwarding of FCoE frames

After establishing FIP snooping rules, a Transit switch forwards FCoE frames that match FIP snooping

rules and drops those that do not match FIP snooping rules. As a result, only successfully registered
ENodes can communicate with FCF switches.

Configuring the operating mode of an Ethernet

interface

Ethernet interfaces on a Transit switch can operate in ENode mode or FCF mode. An Ethernet interface

connected to an ENode must be configured to operate in ENode mode. An Ethernet interface connected

to an FCF switch must be configured to operate in FCF mode.
