Create a CEE map for the Brocade FCoE hardware to define the traffic types on your LAN. For details, see"Creating the CEE map" on page 30. 2. Define your present DCBX setup for TLV. For details, see"Configuring DCBX" on page 31. 3. Configure the Brocade FCoE hardware for your present type of STP. For details, see "Configuring Spanning Tree Protocol" on page 32. 4. Assign the Brocade FCoE hardware to the correct VLAN membership and VLAN group. For details, see "Configuring VLAN Membership" on page 32. 5. Assign the CEE interfaces on the Brocade FCoE hardware to the correct VLAN groups. For details, see "Configuring the CEE Interfaces" on page 33. 6. Enter the copy command to save the running-config file to the startup-config file. About CEE map attributes The following information is needed for CEE configuration: • The types of traffic flowing through an interface, FCoE, TCP/IP, and so on. • The minimum bandwidth required for each traffic type.

Figure 7
illustrates a representative data center LAN with Brocade FCoE hardware. The information
and procedures that follow outline the configuration process for introducing the Brocade FCoE
hardware into the network and for feature sets unique to CEE. Unless otherwise noted, all
commands are entered through the CEE CLI. See the
Brocade FCoE Administrator’s Guide
for
configuration details and supported L2 functionality.
FIGURE 7
Adding the Brocade 8000 switch to the data center LAN (SAN not shown)
The following steps are the basic process for integrating the Brocade FCoE hardware on a LAN.
1.
Create a CEE map for the Brocade FCoE hardware to define the traffic types on your LAN. For
details, see
“Creating the CEE map”
on page 30.
2.
Define your present DCBX setup for TLV. For details, see
“Configuring DCBX”
on page 31.
3.
Configure the Brocade FCoE hardware for your present type of STP. For details, see
“Configuring Spanning Tree Protocol”
on page 32.
4.
Assign the Brocade FCoE hardware to the correct VLAN membership and VLAN group. For
details, see
“Configuring VLAN Membership”
on page 32.
5.
Assign the CEE interfaces on the Brocade FCoE hardware to the correct VLAN groups. For
details, see
“Configuring the CEE Interfaces”
on page 33.
6.
Enter the
copy
command to save the
running-config
file to the
startup-config
file.
