Though this is Emulex documentation, the process remains more or less the same across vendors

thanks for the documents. what i understood with the OneConnect CNA is, it has 2 ports and each port has 1 NICs and 1 FCoE/iSCSI adapters. now if i use iSCSI adapter. will it work on normal ethernet switches or it requires Nexus switches.
