fcoe-map
Create an FCoE map which contains the parameters used to congure the links between server CNAs and a SAN fabric. Apply the FCoE
map on a server-facing Ethernet port.

module.
Usage Information
An FCoE map is a template used to map FCoE and FC parameters in a converged fabric. An FCoE map is used to
virtualize upstream FC ports on an M I/O Aggregator with the PMUX module NPIV proxy gateway so that they
appear to downstream server CNA ports as FCoE forwarder (FCF) ports on an FCoE network. When applied to FC
and Ethernet ports on an NPIV proxy gateway, an FCoE map allows the switch to operate as an FCoE-FC bridge
between an FC SAN and an FCoE network by providing FCoE-enabled servers and switches with the necessary
parameters to log in to a SAN fabric.
On an M I/O Aggregator with the PMUX module NPIV proxy gateway, you cannot apply an FCoE map is applied on
fabric-facing FC ports and server-facing 10–Gigabit Ethernet ports.
An FCoE map consists of the following parameters: the dedicated FCoE VLAN used for storage trac, the
destination SAN fabric (FC-MAP value), FCF priority used by a server, and the FIP keepalive (FKA) advertisement
timeout.
