Note: The MAC Address of the FCoE adapter is found under the Virtual Connect Server Profile:
 Create a virtual Fibre Channel interface for the second Blade server and bind it to the MAC address of its FCoE
adapter 2:
o interface vfc2006
o description vfc for server-2
o bind mac-address 00:17:a4:77:b8:de
o no shutdown
 Create a SAN port channel with VSAN Trunking allowing the two FCoE VSANs (201 and 301) between the Nexus and
MDS-B switch using the two fiber channel interfaces:
o interface san-port-channel 100
o switchport description SAN-Trunk-Port-Channel to MDS-B
o channel mode active
o switchport trunk allowed vsan 201
o switchport trunk allowed vsan add 301
o interface fc 2/1-2
o switchport trunk mode on
o switchport description Connected to MDS-B-fc1/9-10
o channel-group 100
o no shutdown
Note: The MDS-B core switch needs to be NPIV-enabled and F port trunking and channeling enabled.
For more information about NPIV support for your Fibre Channel switch, refer to the Cisco MDS documentation.
To enable the F port trunking and channeling protocol on the MDS switch, use feature fport-channel-trunk. To
enable NPIV use feature npiv. To configure of a TF port-channel on the MDS switch, use the following
commands:
 interface port-channel 100
 channel mode active
