What is cfmFcipEntityAddressType?

This specifies the address family, IPv4 or IPv6, of the IP address by which this local FCIP entity is reachable, as reported in the paired cfmFcipEntityAddress object. Because FCIP tunnels Fibre Channel traffic over IP, getting this address type consistent with the actual IP addressing scheme used on the connecting network is a prerequisite for the FCIP tunnel to establish at all. A dual-stack SAN extension deployment migrating from IPv4 to IPv6 transport would need this object updated to ipv6(2) before the corresponding IPv6 address would be interpreted correctly.
