Comments
You cannot copy legacy
configurations to Fabric OS version
7.0 switches, because these
switches support FCoE maps and
can have only one default DCB map.
Legacy Fabric OS switches,
however, can have more than one
default map.
Both the source and the target
support only one default DCB map.
You can copy QoS, LLDP, and
802.1x configurations from the
source to the target.
VLAN classifiers are supported, but
the FCoE map is not supported on
Fabric OS 7.0.0.
