.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
.LP
The \fBfcoei\fR driver is a pseudo device driver which encapsulates the raw Fibre Channel frames into FCoE ethernet frames, or decapsulates FC frames from FCoE ethernet frames. The supported FC frames include extended/basic link services, common transport frames and initiator mode FCP frames.
.sp
.LP
The \fBfcoei\fR driver interfaces with the Sun Fibre Channel port driver, \fBfp\fR(7d), and the FCoE transport driver, \fBfcoe\fR(7D).
