Specify the FC-MAP value used to generate a
fabric-provided MAC address, which is
required to send FCoE traffic from a server on
the FCoE VLAN to the FC fabric specified in
Step 2. Enter a unique MAC address prefix as
the FC-MAP value for each fabric.
Range: 0EFC00–0EFCFF.
Default: None.

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 configured 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 fabric discovery
(FDISC) messages to a SAN switch.
