Verify FCOE connectivity in NPIV aggregator mode
When the switch mode is set to Access Gateway mode enabled, the F_Ports connect to the Enterprise fabric as
N_Ports rather than as E_Ports. Therefore at least one of the external FC ports must be connected to an external FC
switch fabric in order for the internal ports connected to Converged Network Adapter's (CNA's) to be able to login to
the FCoE ports on the switch module.
The connectivity of the switch module with the CNA's can be verified using the FOS commands switchshow and fcoe
--loginshow. The internal ports should show "online" State, with connectivity of internal FCoE VF-ports to the CNA
VN-ports shown by the session MAC address. See "AccessGateway_AG_v630" admin guide for details on the NPIV
aggregator mode.
Once the switch module FC port is connected to an FC SAN switch, the ports may need to be enabled. From the
switch module FOS CLI enter the following command for the ports being used (this can also be enabled from the
switch GUI):
M8428-k:admin> portcfgpersistentenable <port#>, where the port# is 25, 26, 27 or 0.
Backing up the configuration
Perform these steps to back up the switch module configuration to an FTP server.
1. Open a Telnet or SSH session to the switch module.
2. Enter the following command to upload the basic configuration of the switch module:
configUpload
You are then presented with a series of prompts.
3. Follow the prompts to upload the configuration.
4. When the upload completes, enter the following command to access the CEE CLI:
cmsh
5. Enter the following command to upload the current CEE configuration:
copy running-config ftp://[username@server/path]
You are then prompted for a password. When you enter the ftp password, the copy procedure begins.
These commands upload the switch module configurations to the server, making it available for downloading to a
replacement switch module if necessary. Dell recommends backing up the configuration on a regular basis to
ensure that a complete configuration is available for downloading to a replacement switch module.
