FCoE licensing

The FCoE license enables Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) functionality on the following

supported DCB switches:

• Network OS 10 GbE 24-port 8 GbE 8 FC port switch

• Network OS VDX 6710, 6720, and 6730 switches

• Network OS VDX 6740 and 6740T switches

• Network OS VDX 8770-series switches

• Network OS VDX 2730 10 GbE connection blade for the Fujitsu PRIMERGY BX900 and BX400

Blade Servers

Without the FCoE license, the DCB switches are pure Layer 2 Ethernet switches and do not allow

FCoE bridging capabilities.

NOTE

The VCS license includes the FCoE Base license. With the VCS license, the virtual FCoE ports are

displayed for Network OS switches in VCS mode.

Saving running configurations

The Save Running to Startup dialog box lists discovered DCB switches with Fabric OS version 6.3x

firmware or later. You can select available switches and move them to the Selected Switches list.

Upon startup, the DCB switch configuration is copied to the selected switches.

NOTE

The Save Running to Startup dialog box launches if there is at least one DCB switch discovered. If

no DCB switches exist, a warning message displays.

Copying switch configurations to selected switches

1. To access the Save Running to Startup dialog box, select Configure > Configuration > Save

Running to Startup.

The Save Running to Startup dialog box displays, as shown in Figure 238.
