The last release that will support these features is NOS7.2.

Terry,

Chaminda is correct. We do not support FCoE on the SLX platform. The last version of Network OS to support FCoE was 7.2.0, this can be confirmed by checking the Network OS 7.3.0 Release Notes page 12 under "Deprecated Software Features"

Starting with NOS7.3, FC/FCoE/AG features will be deprecated. The last release that will support these
features is NOS7.2. We will continue to support these features in NOS7.2 and prior releases.

Thanks,
