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 and MXL 10/40GbE Switch 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 traffic, the destination SAN fabric (FC-MAP value), FCF priority used by a
server, and the FIP keepalive (FKA) advertisement timeout.
In each FCoE map, the fabric ID, FC-MAP value, and FCoE VLAN parameters must
be unique. Use one FCoE map to access one SAN fabric. You cannot use the same
FCoE map to access different fabrics.
To remove an FCoE map from an Ethernet interface, enter the no fcoe-map
map-name command in Interface configuration mode.
