Command History
Usage Guidelines Access this command from the
switch(config-if)# submode.
When a new TCP connection is established, an FCIP special frame (if enabled) makes one round trip
from the FCIP profile and initiates the TCP connect operation to the FCIP profile receiving the TCP
connect request and back. Use these frames to identify the FCIP link endpoints, to learn about the critical
parameters shared by Fibre Channel and FCIP profile pairs involved in the FCIP link, and to perform
configuration discovery.
Examples The following example configures the special frames.
switch# config terminal
switch(config)# interface fcip 1
switch(config)# special-frame peer-pwwn 11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11
switch(config)# special-frame peer-pwwn 22:22:22:22:22:22:22:22 profile-id 10
