5 End to End FCoE using FC ISLs

The following diagram shows a deployment scenario where FCoE initiators are connected to FCoE and FC targets across multiple hops of FC ISLs.

FIGURE 3 Deploying FCoE across multiple hops of FC ISLs

FCoE Logical Port Numbering

A total of 24 FCoE logical ports on FCOE10-24 belong to 6 FCoE port groups. The port number range is 0 through 23 and these belong to 6 FCoE port groups ranging from 0 through 3, 4 through 7, 8 through 11, 12 through 15, 16 through 19, and 20 through 23. For example, the FCoE ports on a 24 port blade in the 4th slot is 4/0 through 4/23.

NOTE

This grouping is relevant only for bridging bandwidth considerations. A group of four ports that is arranged in a bank has 10Gb of bridging bandwidth.

FCoE port-to-front end TenGigabit port mapping

Each of the FCoE logical ports in VF port mode is mapped to a corresponding front end TenGigabit port such that the FCoE FLOGI received through the TenGigabit port is mapped and handled at the corresponding FCoE logical port.
