Installation
This section describes how to set up an FCoE environment. It assumes a general understanding of SAN
administration concepts. The installation process consists of the following steps:
1. Determine the configuration.
2. Install CNAs.
3. Configure switches and zoning so that CNAs and storage can see each other.
4. Configure storage to assign LUNs to CNAs.
5. Verify equipment connectivity.
