Clearing a stale entry

A stale entry is a device that logged in and logged off but, because a port went down after an FLOGI
was received, the device failed to receive the message. The entry in the FCoE Connected Devices
table becomes stale and you must clear it manually.
NOTE
Clearing a stale entry is not supported for Network OS devices.
