FC-Redirect-Capable Switches

Note In Cisco MDS NX-OS Release 5.2(x), you cannot install a FCoE module in a switch that is running DMM, SME, or IOA.

SME requires that each target switch be FC-Redirect capable. FC-Redirect is not supported on the following switches:

• Cisco MDS 9120 switch

• Cisco MDS 9140 switch

• Cisco MDS 9124 switch

• Cisco MDS 9134 switch

• Cisco MDS 9020 switch

Note SME does not support any FCoE connected devices including devices connected through the MDS FCoE linecard (DS-X9708-K9).

Note Disk devices, tape devices, and tape libraries are not supported in these edge switches. Disks and tapes cannot be connected to these switches.
