operation.

Boot Targets

Data Center Tab

From the Data Center tab, you can enable/disable Data Center Bridging (DCB), view DCB Feature status, and access the

storage adapter miniport device's FCoE properties tabs.

The Use Data Center Bridging box must be checked (DCB enabled) to use Intel FCoE.

Options

When Using Advanced Settings is indicated, Data Center Bridging (DCB) was configured locally, using a tool like SNMP, in a

way which does not match the Use Switch Settings template. The Use Switch Settings template is Enabled, Advertising, and

Willing for all DCB features.

If you select Use Switch Settings, any Advanced configuration is overwritten.

NOTES: You cannot disable DCB while the system is booted from an FCoE drive or if the system paging file is on an

FCoE drive. The options on the Data Center tab will be grayed out if you try.
