Converged Network Switch, and DC SAN Backbone Director or DC04 SAN Director with one or
more DC SAN Director Switch 10/24 FCoE Blades.
NOTE:
HP may not support all of these switches in this mode. For information about support in interopmodes
2 and 3, see HP StorageWorks Merging Fabrics Based on M-Series and B-Series Fibre Channel
