    Posted Jan 17, 2019 04:47 AM

    Hi Team,

    We plan to connect HP5900/HP5950 to Cisco5548 via ISL to verify FCoE. 

    Can someone suggest how to connect HP5900/HP5950 via ISL to Cisco 5548 to carry FCoE traffic? Is this a valid configuration?

    Below are the switch and interface configuration details

     

    FCoE Initiator (TE 1/0/15) ---- HP5900 (TE 1/0/48) ---- (Eth1/0/30) Cisco5548 ---- Target

    HP5900 current configuration

    lldp global enable
    #
    system-working-mode advance
    #
    fcoe-mode fcf

    vlan 1004
    fcoe enable vsan 1004

    Hello,

    I believe this is new implementation between HPE 5900 and Cisco 5548 switches over FCoE.

    https://support.hpe.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?docId=emr_na-c04216045

    For HPE 5900 switch above is standard solutions configuration guide.

    Please let us know if you still need any other infiormation.

    Thank you,

    HPE Employee
