Troubleshooting FCIP Connections

The interface FCIP can be any number between 1 – 255 and does not need to be the same as the profile
number. In this example the same number is used for simplicity.
Step 9 Specify a profile to use.
MDS1(config-if)# use-profile 28
The interface FCIP will use the Local FCIP profile . The FCIP profile binds the interface FCIP to the
physical Gigabit Ethernet port and configures the TCP settings used by the interface FCIP.
MDS1(config-if)# peer-info ipaddr 10.10.11.2
The IP address in this example indicates the remote endpoint IP address of the FCIP tunnel.
MDS1(config-if)# no shut
MDS1(config-if)# end
The output from issuing the show run command displays the default values in the following example.
MDS1# show run

The following example shows the configuration of MDS2 with debug mode activated. To activate debug
mode for this situation, run the debug ips flow fcip command on a separate terminal.
