Implementing FCoE in the Linux Operating System

Executive summary

This document provides instructions on setting up Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) using a Dell

Force10 switch, a Cisco Nexus switch, Broadcom-based network adapters, and servers running

supported Linux operating systems. It is intended for intermediate Network and System Administrators

with 2-5 years of experience, and assumes a moderate level of network switch administration expertise

and Linux system administration expertise.

Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) encapsulates Fibre Channel frames over IEEE 802.3 Ethernet

networks equipped with FCoE compliant hardware, thereby reducing the amount of physical IO

connectivity necessary to access Fibre Channel-based storage. However, FCoE can be challenging to

implement due to the complexities involved in correctly configuring the various devices on the

network, such as the SAN, switches, network interface adapters, and operating systems on the servers.

This Dell How-To document is intended to assist you in setting-up FCoE in your environment.

Due to the numerous variances in possible SAN, switch, network interface adapter, and server choices,

it is not possible to write exact instructions for every conceivable supported configuration. As such,

this document is written toward implementing one specific real-world configuration, as detailed in the

Described Configuration section below.

This example used the following Hardware:



SAN: EMC Clariion CX700.



Switches: Dell Force10 MXL 10/40GbE Switch (edge); Cisco Nexus 5020 Switch (distribution);

Appropriate core switch for your network of any applicable make and model (core)


