Create Identity Pool - Fibre channel over Ethernet

You can add the required number of Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) Initialization Protocol (FIP) MAC addresses to the identity pool. The World Wide Port Name (WWPN)/World Wide Node Name (WWNN) values are generated from these MAC addresses.
Include FCoE Identity
Select the check box to include the FCoE MAC addresses to the identity pool.
FIP MAC Address
Enter the starting FCoE Initialization Protocol (FIP) MAC address of the identity pool in one of the following formats:
  • AA:BB:CC:DD:EE:FF
  • AA-BB-CC-DD-EE-FF
  • AABB.CCDD.EEFF

The maximum length of a MAC address is 50 characters. This option is displayed only if the Include FCoE Identity check box is selected.

The WWPN/WWNN values are generated from the MAC address.
