Cisco Nexus 5000 with 4G FC module - initialization ?
Hi, I got some trouble to get the 8-port (4/2/1 FC module) up and running in a Nexus 5000. The module itself is shown in the inventory but when I want to have a detailed look on an interface than there is no option "Fibre Channel". Is there anything else to do with this module (activation, initialization, etc. ?) Thanks Thomas
When you do a show running, do the interfaces show there at all as fc x/x? Do you have the FCOE feature enabled? -Mike -----Original Message----- From: Thomas Weible [mailto:Thomas.Weible@flexoptix.net] Sent: Monday, January 17, 2011 11:14 AM To: nanog@nanog.org Subject: Cisco Nexus 5000 with 4G FC module - initialization ?

Thomas - If I'm not mistaken, there is an additional license needed to activate Fibre-Channel services on the Nexus family of switches.
