PREPARE BROADCOM MULTIPLE BOOT AGENT FOR FCOE BOOT
1. During POST, press CTRL+S at the Broadcom NetXtreme Ethernet Boot Agent banner to invoke the CCM utility.
2. Select the device through which boot is to be configured.
NOTE: IMPORTANT: When running in NIC Partitioning (NPAR) mode, FCoE boot is supported only when the first
function on each port is assigned an FCoE personality. FCoE boot is not supported when the FCoE personality is
assigned to any other function.
3. Ensure DCB/DCBX is enabled on the device. FCoE boot is only supported on DCBX capable configurations. As such,
DCB/DCBX must be enabled, and the directly attached link peer must also be DCBX capable with parameters that allow
for full DCBX synchronization.
