Remarks
N/A
N/A
By default, a VFC interface operates
in F mode.
•
When an FCF switch operates in
FCF mode, VFC interfaces support
E and F modes.
•
When an FCF switch operates in
NPV mode, FC interfaces support
F and NP modes.
By default, no Ethernet interface is
bound to a VFC interface.
The VFC interface sends and receives
packets through the Ethernet interface
bound to it.
By default, a VFC interface is not
assigned to any VSAN as a trunk
interface.
You can assign a VFC interface to a
nonexistent VSAN as a trunk interface
and then create the VSAN.
By default, the description of an
interface is Interface name Interface,
for example, Vfc1 Interface.
