• L2 Mode—The values are Access, Trunk, or Converged. Access mode allows only one VLAN
association, and allows only untagged frames. Trunk mode allows more than one VLAN
association, and allows tagged frames. Converged mode interface can be native (untagged or
access) in one VLAN and it could be non-native (trunk or tagged) type in more than one VLAN.
• DCB Map—The name of a DCB map that was created and associated with the port.
• Traffic Class Map—The name of a traffic class map that was created and associated with the
port.
• LLDP Status—Indicates whether LLDP is active or inactive.
• LLDP Profile—The name of an LLDP profile that was created and associated with the port.

Switch administration and FCoE
The DCB tab on the Switch Administration panel is specific to DCE and DCB configuration and
management. The DCB tab has five subtabs (Figure 45) that are used for FCoE switch
administration:
• Link Aggregation
• VLAN
• FCoE Login Group
• QoS
• LLDP-DCBX
.

FC0E configuration tasks
There are several tasks related to FC0E configuration. The following list describes the high level
tasks in a suggested order:
• Quality of Service (QoS) configuration (optional)—If you intend to implement a specific QoS
scheme to prioritize data traffic, it is recommended that you finish your QoS configuration
before you begin port configuration. QoS values are referenced when you configure ports.
• LLDP-DCBX configuration (optional)—If you intend to implement DCBX, it is recommended that
you finish LLDP-DCBX configuration before you configure ports. LLDP-DCBX values are
referenced when you configure ports.
• DCB interface configuration (mandatory).
