How to connect ISL between HPE and Cisco Switches

Hi Team,

We plan to connect HP5900/HP5950 to Cisco5548 via ISL to verify FCoE. 

Can someone suggest how to connect HP5900/HP5950 via ISL to Cisco 5548 to carry FCoE traffic? Is this a valid configuration?

Below are the switch and interface configuration details

 

FCoE Initiator (TE 1/0/15) ---- HP5900 (TE 1/0/48) ---- (Eth1/0/30) Cisco5548 ---- Target

HP5900 current configuration

Hello,

I believe this is new implementation between HPE 5900 and Cisco 5548 switches over FCoE.

https://support.hpe.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?docId=emr_na-c04216045

For HPE 5900 switch above is standard solutions configuration guide.

Please let us know if you still need any other infiormation.

Thank you,

HPE Employee
