Creating FCIP Links
When two FCIP link endpoints are created, an FCIP link is established between the two IPS modules or
MPS-14/2 modules. To create an FCIP link, assign a profile to the FCIP interface and configure the peer
information. The peer IP switch information initiates (creates) an FCIP link to that peer switch (see

switch(config)#
Step 2
switch1(config)# interface fcip 51
