FCoE NPIV management
NPIV is a fibre channel facility allowing multiple N_Port IDs to share a single physical N_Port.
This module allows the user to manage virtual ports on the corresponding FCoE Port.
To create a virtual port, select the option Create and the GUI allows two ways of creating a
virtual port.
i. Manual: Where the user can manually create a virtual port by providing a value to the
WWPN and WWNN fields.
ii. Auto-generate: Where the FCoE function auto-generates a WWPN and WWNN for the
virtual port.
To delete a virtual port, select the option Delete and select the virtual port WWPN which you
want to delete and click on delete.
