fiber channel hba as a network interface in esxi

[fozerol]

i can use qla2340 fc hba as a network interface in linux with qla2xip module (driver) after installing that fc0 network interface name can be used.

can i do that in vmware ?

if yes, how ?

i can see hba in storage adapters list but not in network adapters list?

esxi version is not important, i can install any version of them

thanks for your replies.

No that is not possible - the drivers are not available to use a FC HBA as a network card -
