configure fip snooping add fcf

configure fip snooping {vlan} vlan_name add fcf mac_addr port port

Description

This command is used to add an FCF to a FIP Snooping VLAN port when in manual fcf-update mode.

If the fcf-update mode is manual, this command adds a new FCF MAC to the list of FCFs. The command does not allow the same FCF MAC to be added to multiple ports in the same VLAN.

When a new FCF is added, ACLs are added to accept FIP frames from the new FCF.

An FCF can only be configured on a FIP Snooping VLAN port that has port location FCF-to-Enode or All configured.

If the fcf-update mode is automatic and this command is executed, the add is not allowed and the user is informed.
