QuestionQ140

Network

A network engineer configures a converged network adapter (CNA) and needs to associate a virtual Fibre Channel 7 interface with VSAN 7. The CNA connects to interface Eth1/7, and VLAN 700 is mapped to the VSAN. Which configuration must be applied to create the virtual Fibre Channel interface and associate it with the physical Ethernet interface?

  • A switch(config)# interface vfc 7 switch(config-if)# bind interface ethernet 1/7
  • B switch(config)# vlan 700 switch(config-vlan)# fcoe vsan 7
  • C switch(config)# vsan database switch(config-vsan)# vsan 7 interface vfc 7
  • D switch(config)# interface ethernet 1/7 switch(config-if)# vfc 7 attach vlan 1,700
Explanation

A virtual Fibre Channel interface is created with interface vfc 7 and, for a directly connected CNA, is bound to its physical Ethernet interface with bind interface ethernet 1/7. This binding is required before the vFC interface can be used. VLAN-to-VSAN mapping and vFC-to-VSAN association are separate configuration operations.
