NPIV Proxy Gateway

The N-port identifier virtualization (NPIV) Proxy Gateway (NPG) feature provides FCoE-FC bridging
capability on the FN I/O Aggregator with the FC Flex IO module switch, allowing server CNAs to

communicate with SAN fabrics over the FN I/O Aggregator with the FC Flex IO module.
To configure the FN I/O Aggregator with the FC Flex IO module to operate as an NPIV proxy gateway,
use the following commands:

show fcoe-map

Display the Fibre Channel and FCoE configuration parameters in FCoE maps.

Syntax

show fcoe-map [brief | map-name]

Parameters

brief

Displays an overview of currently configured FCoE maps.

map-name

specified FCoE map. The FCoE map is applied on Ethernet
(FCoE) and FC ports to transmit FC storage traffic to a
specified fabric.
