4. Configure the FCoE switch with the following parameters:
 FCoE priority 3 PFC enabled, ETS bandwidth = 50 percent
 All other classes of service lossy, ETS bandwidth = 50 percent
5. Capture the trace and verify the following information:
 DCBX version used by each link end is the same.
 If the DCBX version 1.01 is used, then verify the following:
 DCBX Oper_Version field value is the same in DCBX messages
for all devices.
 ER bit is OFF in each DCBX message.
 EN bit is ON in each DCBX message.
 Converged Network Adapter and Target Willing bit (W) is ON,
while the Switch W bit is OFF.
