3. Configure the test as follows:



4. Use MLTT to calculate IOPS and latency for the three test configurations,
and verify data integrity.
5. Set up the Analyzer's TraceControl to capture FCoE frames over the
Ethernet VLAN by setting these frame types as trigger conditions. The FCoE
EtherType is 0x8906.
6. Use Expert to analyze the trace. Compare the details of the I/O performance
for the three test configurations, and identify any errors in the FCoE traffic.
