Enabling FCoE NPV

You can enable FCoE NPV using the feature fcoe-npv command. We recommend this method in topologies
that include all FCoE connections. A write erase reload does not occur when you use this method and a storage
service license is not required. Enabling FCoE NPV using the feature fcoe-npv command requires an installed
FCOE_NPV_PKG license.
Before You Begin
FCoE NPV has the following prerequisites:
• Ensure that the correct licenses are installed.
• Configure the VNP ports.
