NAME

6       fcoei - Fibre Channel Over Ethernet Initiator Mode Driver

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

13       The  fcoei  driver is a pseudo device driver which encapsulates the raw
14       Fibre Channel frames into FCoE  ethernet  frames,  or  decapsulates  FC
15       frames  from  FCoE  ethernet  frames.  The  supported FC frames include
16       extended/basic link services, common  transport  frames  and  initiator
17       mode FCP frames.

20       The  fcoei  driver  interfaces  with the Sun Fibre Channel port driver,
21       fp(7D), and the FCoE transport driver, fcoe(7D).
