o vlan 201
o fcoe vsan 201
o vlan 301
o fcoe vsan 301
Note: Enabling FCoE on VLAN 1 is not supported.
 Create a port channel between the MDS-B and the Nexus switch B with eth2/1 and eth2/2 from the Cisco MDS 9000
10-Gbps 8-Port FCoE Module:
o interface ethernet 2/1-2
o channel-group 100 mode active
 Create a trunk on the port channel interface to pass the FCoE VLANs 201 and 301:
o interface ethernet-port-channel 100
o switchport description FCoE Port Channel to Nexus-B-eth1/19-20
o switchport mode trunk
o switchport trunk allowed vlan 201, 301
 Create a virtual Fibre Channel interface for the FCoE Port Channel connected to Nexus-B:
o interface vfc1000
o description vfc for Nexus-B
o bind interface ethernet-port-channel 100
o switchport mode E
o switchport trunk allowed vsan 201
o switchport trunk allowed vsan add 301
o switchport trunk mode on
o no shutdown

o interface fc1/1
o switchport description Connected to EVA
o no shutdown
o interface fc1/2
o switchport description Connected to 3PAR
o no shutdown
 Assign the Virtual Fibre Channel interfaces (vfc) and the Fibre Channel interfaces (fc) to the FCoE VSANs:
o vsan database
o vsan 201
o vsan 201 name 3PAR-VSAN
o vsan 201 interface vfc 1000
