IPFC
IPFC provides IP forwarding or in-band switch management over a Fibre Channel interface (rather than
out-of-band using the Gigabit Ethernet mgmt 0 interface). You can be use IPFC to specify that IP frames
can be transported over Fibre Channel using encapsulation techniques. IP frames are encapsulated into
Fibre Channel frames so NMS information can cross the Fibre Channel network without using an overlay
Ethernet network.
Once the VSAN interface is created, you can specify the IP address for that VSAN. You can assign an
IPv4 address or an IPv6 address.
