Deploying FCoE (FIP Snooping) on Dell Force 10 MXL

Scenario 1: Deploying the Dell Force10 MXL FSB in a Cisco 5000 series switch
(NPIV) environment
This first example is a basic, single connection between devices example using the Dell Force10 MXL.
This configuration is being shown for the purposes of simplification and potentially easing into the
progression of a more in-depth setup. It is also easier to use a simple configuration such as this setup to
aid in troubleshooting of the initial install. In a typical business environment most configurations will
be scaled to include several connections between servers and storage. The scenarios following this one
will show some of these larger configurations.
