2 Apply the FCoE/FC configuration in an FCoE
map on the Ethernet port. Repeat this step to
apply an FCoE map to more than one port, for
example:

Applying an FCoE Map on Fabric-facing FC Ports
The Aggregator, with the FC ports, are configured by default to operate in N port mode to connect to an
F port on an FC switch in a fabric. You can apply only one FCoE map on an FC port.
When you apply an FCoE map on a fabric-facing FC port, the FC port becomes part of the FCoE fabric,
whose settings in the FCoE map are configured on the port and exported to downstream server CNA
ports.
Each Aggregator, with the FC port, is associated with an Ethernet MAC address (FCF MAC address). When
you enable a fabric-facing FC port, the FCoE map applied to the port starts sending FIP multicast
advertisements using the parameters in the FCoE map over server-facing Ethernet ports. A server sees the
FC port, with its applied FCoE map, as an FCF port.
