The VFC entries may not be present
on the Cisco Nexus 5000 series
switch
Ensure that VFC's are created that
will be applicable to the connection.
This can be bound to the FCoE-FIP
MAC of the CNA or to the physical
interface of the Cisco Nexus 5000
Series switch
The VFC entry may not be enable (no
shutdown)
Check VFC entries applicable to the
connection and make sure "no
shutdown" is part of the configuration
for that interface
The FCoE VLAN may not match on
both sides (PowerConnect 8024 and
Cisco Nexus 5000 series tagged VLAN
entries matched to the FCoE
feature)
The same tagged VLAN should pass
FCoE traffic from the PowerConnect
8024 series switch to the Cisco Nexus
5000 series switch. Configure this
VLAN appropriately - see CLI
explanation sections
LACP feature may not be enabled on
Cisco Nexus 5000 series switch for
