Item

Description

“Unassigned” and associated with a specific bay.

FcoeNetwork (optional) The name of an existing FCoE network to associate with the connection.

You cannot specify both Fabric and FcoeNetwork properties. If neither property

is specified, then the connection is marked as "Unassigned", but is associated
with a specific bay.

SpeedType (optional)

The requested operation speed for the server port. Valid values are "1Gb",

"2Gb", "4Gb", "8Gb", "Auto", "Custom", "Preferred", and "Disabled". The
default value is "Preferred". "Auto" does not apply to fabrics, and "1Gb" to
"8Gb" does not apply to FCoE networks.

If the SpeedType is "Custom", you can configure any speed from 100Mb to
10Gb in 100Mb increments.
If the speed type is "Preferred", the speed of the FCoE connection is the same as

the preferred speed of the fabric or FCoE network to which the connection is
associated. If no preferred speed is configured for a fabric or FCoE network,
Virtual Connect determines the speed.

CustomSpeed (required

if SpeedType is

"Custom")

The user-defined speed for the server port. Valid values include 100Mb to
10Gb configured in 100Mb increments.

WWNAddressType

(optional)

The source of WWN address assignments to be used during the creation of the
new connection. If not specified, the default is the domain default. If

"User-Defined" is specified, both a Port WWN and Node WWN must also be
specified. Valid values are "Factory-Default"' and "User-Defined".

PortWWN (required if

WWNAddressType is

"User-Defined")

The user-defined Port WWN address to use for the connection. The PortWWN
must be an unused WWN address.

NodeWWN (required if

WWNAddressType is

"User-Defined")

The user-defined Node WWN address to use for the connection. The
NodeWWN must be an unused WWN address.

MACAddressType

(optional)

The source of MAC address assignments to be used during the creation of the
new connection. If not specified, the default is the domain default. If

"User-Defined" is specified, EthernetMAC must also be specified. Valid values
are "Factory-Default" and "User-Defined".

EthernetMAC (required

if MACAddressType is

"User-Defined")

The user-defined Ethernet MAC address to use for the connection.
