implementing
FCoE
using
the

software:
The
NE2552E

network
through
an
FCF
such
as
a

For

FCoE,
the
connected
server
must
use
the

Converged
Network
Adapter
(CNA)
and
have
the
FCoE
license
enabled
(if

on
the
CNA.
CEE

reconfigured,
but
must
remain

disable
FIP

on
individual
ports
that
do
not
require
FCoE,
but
FIP
snooping
must
remain
enabled
on
all
FCoE
ports
for
FCoE
to
function.
An
FCOE
VLAN
