94 | FIP Snooping<br />

Dynamic ACL generation on an Aggregator operating as a FIP snooping bridge functions as follows:<br />

• Global ACLs are applied on server-facing ENode ports.<br />

• Port-based ACLs are applied on ports directly connected to an FCF and on server-facing ENode ports.<br />

• Port-based ACLs take precedence over global ACLs.<br />

• FCoE-generated ACLs take precedence over user-configured ACLs. A user-configured ACL entry<br />

cannot deny FCoE and FIP snooping frames.<br />

Figure 8-2 shows an Aggregator used as a FIP snooping bridge in a converged Ethernet network. The ToR<br />

switch operates as an FCF for FCoE traffic. Converged LAN and SAN traffic is transmitted between the<br />

ToR switch and an Aggregator. The Aggregator operates as a lossless FIP snooping bridge to transparently<br />

forward FCoE frames between the ENode servers and the FCF switch.<br />
