Configuring Static IP Peers for CFS over IP

Cisco DCNM-SAN discovers NPV devices by reading the name server database on the NPV core switch, which is also used to manage the static peer list at an NPV switch for CFS distribution over IP using static peers.

DCNM for SAN 4.1(1) and later provides a one-time configuration wizard to manage the peer list of the discovered NPV peers on a switch. When the peer list is configured on a switch, CFS enables distribution using the IP static peers on all members of the list and propagates the peer list to all members on the list.

Note     If a new NPV switch is added to the fabric, you must launch the NPV CFS Setup wizard to update the list because DCNM-SAN does not update the list automatically.
