[AusNOG] Nexus 5596 FCOE issues on B22hp to HP G8

[simon thomason]

Talked to the SAN person and he pretty certain it is not overlapping WWN on
the CNA but will confirm now.

We have been debugging the flogi but my skills at reading this a limited...
Maybe if you had written it in dumbed down version for stupid networks
people like me :)

It was pretty simple up till we attached the G8 which has only caused
issues so far be it the 5k or the G8 not certain.

Still waiting on tac to get back to me.

Thanks for this Lincoln.
