All member ports in an FCoE-capable VLAN are isolated and will not form loops. For this reason,
you do not need to enable STP or other loop detection protocols in an FCoE-capable VLAN.
Otherwise, FCoE links might be blocked.
A Layer 2 protocol enabled in an FCoE-capable VLAN runs based on the topology where all
member ports in the FCoE-capable VLAN are isolated at Layer 2.
Examples
# Enable FCoE on VLAN 4 and map VLAN 4 to VSAN 6.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] vlan 4
[Sysname-vlan4] fcoe enable vsan 6
