Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) is a protocol designed to seamlessly replace the Fibre Channel physical interface with Ethernet. The gateway FC fabric creates the path between the FCoE devices and the SAN. This example describes how to configure the interfaces, VLAN, and FC fabric to connect FCoE devices. The Ethernet enhancements are collectively referred to as Data Center Bridging (DCB). Typically, data centers have a dedicated LAN and Storage Area Network (SAN) that are separated from each other with their own specific configuration.
