M8024 DCB and SSM Question
Will the M8024 DCB-enabled blade switch for the m1000e be able to support FCoE pass-through functionality while in Simple Connect Mode?
We are looking for a possible Dell blade chassis solution since our organization is suffering from a bit of IBM-fatigue. If not Dell, then we will be looking at a Cisco Nexus 4000 blade switch with the IBM chassis (we have a Nexus top-of-rack) because it seems to us that the only way to deploy a Dell FCoE pass-through solution at the chassis is by deploying the M8024 as a fully-featured ethernet switch, but then we have the complexities involved in integrating it into the Nexus/STP environment. We would rather just have it act as a port aggregator.
Thanks
