4. Specify the FC-MAP value used to generate a fabric-provided MAC address, which is required to send FCoE trac from a
server on the FCoE VLAN to the FC fabric specied in Step 2. Enter a unique MAC address prex as the FC-MAP value for
each fabric. Range: 0EFC00–0EFCFF. Default: None.
FCoE MAP mode
fc-map fc-map-value
5. Congure the priority used by a server CNA to select the FCF for a fabric login (FLOGI). Range: 1–255. Default: 128.
FCoE MAP mode
fcf-priority priority
6. Enable the monitoring FIP keepalive messages (if it is disabled) to detect if other FCoE devices are reachable. Default: FIP
keepalive monitoring is enabled.
FCoE MAP mode
keepalive
7. Congure the time interval (in seconds) used to transmit FIP keepalive advertisements. Range: 8–90 seconds. Default: 8
seconds.

Applying an FCoE Map on Server-facing Ethernet Ports
You can apply multiple FCoE maps on an Ethernet port or port channel. When you apply an FCoE map on a server-facing port or
port channel:
• The port is congured to operate in hybrid mode (accept both tagged and untagged VLAN frames).
• The associated FCoE VLAN is enabled on the port or port channel.
When you enable a server-facing Ethernet port, the servers respond to the FIP advertisements by performing FLOGIs on upstream
virtualized FCF ports. The NPG forwards the FLOGIs as FDISC messages to a SAN switch.
1. Congure a server-facing Ethernet port or port channel with an FCoE map.
CONFIGURATION mode
interface {tengigabitEthernet slot/port | port-channel num}
2. Apply the FCoE/FC conguration in an FCoE map on the Ethernet port. Repeat this step to apply an FCoE map to more than
one port.
