Dell Networking S5000: Deployment of a Converged Infrastructure with FCoE
The Dell PowerEdge R720 server has its virtual Ethernet NICs configured via NIC teaming and
connecting to two separate Dell S5000 switches. The virtual HBA ports are connecting to the same
Dell S5000 switches but are logically separated from the Ethernet NICs and the NIC teaming
configuration is not taken into account.

Since we are using a Dell QLogic QLE8262 CNA, the first thing we need to do is configure it for FCoE.
Note, since we NIC team with 'Failsafe Team', no configuration is required on the S5000 switches. See
section D: "FCoE CNA adapter configuration specifics" for details of the configuration.
As no change is required on the backend LAN/SAN networks except for some changes in
zoning/access, the main task in the new topology is the configuration of the Dell S5000's switches for
both fabric A and fabric B. This configuration is shown below in Figure 51 and Figure 52.
