The configuration limits guidelines are as follows:
• The number of VF port and VN port interfaces that can be supported between a given FCF and an FCoE
• The total number of supported VSANs is 31 (excluding the EVFP VSAN).
• The total number of supported FCIDs is 2048.

NPV bridge also depends on the FCF to MAC advertising capability of the FCF:
◦ If an FCF advertises the same FCF-MAC address over all of its interfaces, then the FCoE NPV
bridge can connect to it over one VNP Port. In this scenario, we recommend that one port channel
interface be used for redundancy.
◦ If an FCF advertises multiple FCF-MAC addresses, then the limits in the previous table apply. For
additional information, see the best practices recommendations for the FCF switch.
