Answer:

Explanation:
ENODES: During FLOGI or FDISC, the ENode advertises the addressing modes it supports. If the FC
switch supports an addressing mode that the ENode uses, the virtual link can be established, and the
devices can communicate.
FIP: FIP is the set of control plane functions that enable discovery of FCoE-capable devices across
FCoE passthrough switches and establishment of legal combinations of virtual links.
FCF: FCoE Initialization Protocol (FIP) is the FCoE control protocol responsible for establishing and
maintaining Fibre Channel virtual links between pairs of FCoE devices (ENodes or FCFs). During the
virtual link establishment phase, FIP first discovers FCoE VLANs and remote virtual FC interfaces;
then it performs virtual link initialization functions (fabric login [FLOGI] and fabric discovery [FDISC],
or exchange link parameters [ELP]) similar to their native Fibre Channel equivalents. After the virtual
link is established, Fibre Channel payloads can be exchanged on the virtual link, and FIP remains in
the background to perform virtual link maintenance functions; it continuously verifies reachability
between the two virtual FC interfaces on the Ethernet network, and it offers primitives to delete the
virtual link in response to administrative actions to that effect. This document does not describe the
virtual link maintenance functions of FIP.
